Outdoor plants for your balcony, garden or conservatory

Types of garden plants

Outdoor plants instantly add a cosy and green vibe to your garden, balcony or conservatory. Whether you're dreaming of a Mediterranean garden with palms and olive trees, or a colourful space full of flowers and butterflies. With our wide range of outdoor plants, there’s always one that suits your outdoor area. From compact potted plants to large statement pieces.

Our selection includes plants that can handle the European climate well, as long as you choose the right spot and provide proper care. Whether you're a seasoned plant lover or just getting started, we’re happy to help with clear advice on care and winter hardiness.

Outdoor plants for sunny spots

Got a garden or balcony facing south? Lucky you! That means you can go wild with sun-loving plants. Think Mediterranean favourites like Olea Europaea (olive tree), Phoenix Roebelenii (pygmy date palm) or a fragrant Lavandula (lavender). Citrus plants such as Citrus Lemon and Citrus Kumquat also thrive in sunny locations.

Make sure the soil drains well and water regularly on warm days. These types love a nice spot in a large pot on your terrace or balcony.

Outdoor plants for partial shade

Have a garden or balcony with limited sunlight? Most garden plants actually prefer partial shade. That means a few hours of sun each day combined with some shade. Ideal for gardens facing east or west, or a sheltered balcony.

Think of plants like Hydrangea, Clematis Ville de Lyon or Laurus Nobilis (bay laurel). Bay laurel is especially popular because it stays green year-round and the leaves are great in the kitchen. Combine multiple plants in pots to easily create a lush and green outdoor space.

Outdoor plants for shady spots

Shady corners deserve greenery too. Some plants actually thrive without direct sunlight. Great choices include Fatsia Japonica, Hosta, Bamboo or Eucalyptus Gunnii.

Mediterranean vibes with palms and citrus

Want a holiday feeling all year round in your garden or on your balcony? Go for palms, olive trees and citrus plants. Our Phoenix Roebelenii, Washingtonia Robusta and Olea Europaea instantly create a Mediterranean vibe. Pair them with a Citrus Calamondin or Citrus Kumquat for colour and scent. These varieties look great in pots in a sunny spot and add a unique touch to your outdoor space.

Just make sure to protect non-hardy varieties like citrus and palms during winter. You can also move them indoors or into a conservatory during the colder months.

Flowering plants for terrace or balcony

Looking to add some colour? Mandevilla Sundaville is a great pick. This climbing plant blooms generously with red flowers and grows easily in pots. Perfect for terraces and balconies. Combine it with lavender or clematis for a lush, summery effect.

Unique trees and eye-catchers

Want something truly special? Acer Shirasawanum Moonrise is one of our favourites. This Japanese maple has striking coloured leaves that turn bright orange in autumn. Ficus Carica (fig tree) is another great option – a beautiful plant that rewards you with delicious figs in summer.
