Here is it 4 months later and look at these! I can't even see the fence anymore and the morning glory has fallen over my neighbor's side of the fence. I hope it looks pretty over there, too. The vine is even starting to creep into the oak leaf hydrangea!
I thought my window boxes looked so lovely when just planted. But, wow, aren't they spectacular now? I learned a few things about what will do well and not do well in the top and bottom boxes. The Goldilocks is a definite keeper as are the impatiens but the orange daisy-like ones didn't do well, not enough sun. I like the tall purple spiky flower (not blooming here) and little purple vine flower, too.
I have just planted the coleus from the market yesterday in the 2nd floor window boxes. Almost everything I planted didn't do much in those boxes, they are shadier. So, next year I'll try the same thing I planted in the lower ones.
I'll take a picture of the newly replanted boxes soon, it's raining!
Wow...those window boxes are spectacular! Don't you just love to watch things grow.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy before and after photos and these are exceptionally good. The orange impatiens look so nice up against the brick on your house.
