On these warm summer days it is great to have our spacious patios where we can relax and enjoy spectacular views of our city. Many of us are also container gardeners; some are into floral beauty- others who have less green thumb talent focus on herbs.
I have a thriving herb garden with rosemary, thyme, chives, and basil, basil, basil. If anyone needs a few leaves for a bocconcini and tomato salad, let me know. I would be happy to share the green bounty.
Fortunately, since I tend to neglect plants, my garden thrives on minimal watering.
However I gather from the repeated reminders from the concierge desk, that perhaps some people are either over watering their plants or else washing away the black construction dust that accumulates so rapidly on our outdoor surfaces. The net effect is that water pours down from their patio wetting the glass and the surfaces of the neighbors below. This is not responsible behaviour. This picture shows water pouring down the glass of one of the units in the west tower from a patio above.
We are privileged to live in a really great complex with wonderful shared facilities. But with privilege comes responsibility. Please be considerate of your neighbors. Allowing your visitors to flick cigarette butts over the balcony or watering the patio of your neighbor below, is disrespectful of your community.
