Apartment Tour Part 2 - Balcony Garden

Welcome to the jungle, I mean, my balcony! If you had told me 10 years ago that someday I would be into gardening I would have laughed. Funny how things changed... when we moved into our new apartment six months ago and saw how enormous my balcony is (it's the length of the living room and one of the bedroom) I knew right away that I wanted to turn it into a garden! Over the past few months, we made countless trips to Home Depot (to the point where my fiancé started to loathe that place), we (mostly just me) went on an emotional rollercoaster of "yay my plant looks awesome" and "oh no please don't die", and now here I am with my dream garden! It might not look as good as I first planted everything but that's what gardening is all about right? You just keep at it and eventually things will bloom and flourish, well, hopefully! If you miss part 1 of my apartment tour last week, you can check it out here.
