Have you ever admired window boxes and wondered how they are made up? Wonder no more.
There are many types of window boxes. You can select from plastic, fibreglass, wood, stone or concrete.
Choose wisely from the selection available. The material of your window box should be in keeping with the style of your house. Choose a box that would be best to highlight your plants.
Your window box should have proper drainage holes to let the excess water drain off and prevent root rot.
Next, select the types of plants you would like to put in your box. Set the plants out in the box and experiment with the designs. Mix and match your plants. You can also add fillers and trailers to give it that finished effect.
Chrysanthemums are in season in great colours and they are awesome to work with. Some other plants you can use are Petunias, Periwinkles, Dwarf Marigolds and Busy Lizzies.
Now is the time to do those window boxes and enjoy them to the fullest.
Until next week, Happy Gardening.
