Window Boxes

Flower Filled
I drive by this house all the time and every time I admired their window box.
I've been meaning to take a photo to show for a long time.
This is not even it at its best because the weather has been so blistering hot for weeks, 
that flowers are not at their prettiest but it still looks amazing.
I wish I had a flower box like this under my front window. 
Maybe next year.

I love them! How artfully created...I would need a gardner to be successful with that!

Merci for the bouquets~

That is pretty, and it would be nice on your house for sure. I love the clumps of the licorice plant dripping down in groups between the flowers!

Cool. I love how the licorice vine creates stripes. It's a great pattern on the front of the house.

I can remember driving through OKC and seeing these neighborhoods. Always found them charming and quaint.

That's one of the cutest window boxes ever! I'd be staring at it all the time if I drove by it too!

Thanks for posting that for us. It is just lovely! I have a house here in my town that has a whole sideyard of Rudbekia. You have inspired me to get a photo of it and share. :) Kit

Wow, my hat is off to them!
I tried window boxes one year and it had SO HARD trying to keep my flowers looking lush and not dried out. They have done a fantastic job.
Just beautiful.

Love how the window boxes extend slightly past the window - gives a great look. Great inspiration in these photos.
