The only potted plant I have besides seasonal flowers for our upper terrace is a lemon tree. We have a municipal market 5 minutes from the house where we can buy all sorts of seasonal vegetables, fruits and locally caught fish. It’s open 6 days a week so we can buy fresh.
“We have a municipal market...Its open 6 days a week so we can buy fresh.”
Its a good thing to have local farmers and gardeners growing your produce, and the walk to the market is good for you!
If ever you do consider another potted plant, there are smaller well behaved Fig trees that would not take over your terrace, could be ornamental and still produce figs. Then again, in Spain they probably grow everywhere wild and it would be like me having a cottonwood tree on my patio! It maybe better to just enjoy the view!
