I have a small wind exposed 5th floor balcony in NYC that gets full afternoon light. I want to get it going with some planters but would need something pretty hardy. Would love to be able get something flowering, but not sure if anything like that would grow! Any ideas?

Very curious what others would say but in a very sturdy pot, snake plants would do super well. In their natural habitat they grow in full sun and depending on the area around them don’t mind being blown around!

I just put sheer curtains in my afternoon sunny window and turns that direct light into bright indirect light 🪴🩷🤷‍♀️
