Balcony Watering Etiquette 🌸

As balconies come to life with flowers and plants this season, we'd like to remind residents to be mindful when watering.

Excess water can drip onto balconies below, impacting neighbours and their outdoor spaces. When watering plants, please take care to avoid overwatering and consider using trays or containers to catch excess water.

A little extra attention helps everyone enjoy their balconies throughout the summer months.

Thank you for helping keep our community comfortable and enjoyable for all residents.
