Plants for full sun + extreme heat + small pots?
Hi everyone! I'm looking for some advice on what to grow on my balcony.
I live in the south of France, where summers are extremely hot, with intense sun and frequent heatwaves. My balcony is south-facing and gets full sun all day, so I'm looking for plants that can really handle those conditions.
Because I need to hang the pots on my balcony railing, they can't be very large, so I'm mainly looking for plants that grow well in relatively small containers.
I'm open to flowers, herbs, edible plants, or ornamental plants—anything that's beautiful and can thrive in full sun and extreme heat.
If you have a similar south-facing balcony, I'd love to see photos of your setup for inspiration! What has worked well for you?
Thanks in advance!
