Not everyone has the time, or the patience, for a terrace garden that demands daily attention, but that doesn’t mean lush greenery has to stay out of reach. Several hardy, low-maintenance plants can thrive on an Indian terrace or balcony with barely any fuss, needing little more than a weekly watering and the occasional check-in. These are the kinds of plants that forgive a missed watering day, tolerate heat and inconsistent care, and still reward you with greenery, colour, or the occasional bloom. If you want a terrace that looks alive without turning into a chore, here are seven plants that ask for roughly ten minutes of your time each week and give back a lot more.
