Smile Balcony Growing - easy shadehouse

Hi all
I live in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town, South Africa in a flat.
-I used to have a big garden with a freestanding shadehouse. Had to make a plan on the balcony.

I used two single wooden beds, some planks, an off cut of a polycarb roof sheet and some shade netting = voila!

The shadehouse gets full morning sun and bright reflected light in afternoons (does not look like it in pics though) - grow all types in there - Vanda, Ansellia, Cattleya, Phals, Angraecum etc.

Nice, nice balcony too. I don't think I have ever seen a balcony that big. Also, nice collection, thanks for sharing.
