Which plants will grow on our balcony

Which plants will grow on our balcony which receives direct sunshine but also lots of wind and rain? We live in the Netherlands and when it’s sunny, our balcony gets full direct sunshine for the most of the day. However, at other times during the year, it can be raining and cold the whole day. We are struggling to find plants that can survive these extremes. Rosemary seems to be the only one doing well. We would love to find some more plants that can survive in these conditions. Do you have any tips where we could start? Thanks!
