1. Tier count and footprint

Corner ladder stands save balcony space. Wide multi-tier racks suit courtyards. Measure height under eaves and door swings before buying tall units.

2. Materials for Aussie weather

Powder-coated steel, aluminium and sealed hardwood cope with UV and summer storms. Avoid untreated particleboard outdoors.

3. Stability, drainage and wind

Wide bases resist tip-over. Leave gaps for saucers and airflow. Anchor lightweight stands on windy balconies or place heaviest pots low.

4. Styling and plant health

Group by watering needs. Elevate pots off hot concrete. Rotate plants for even light and wipe stands when fertiliser drips stain metal.
