Bring nature back into to your environment. Living in the city, you can
still stay in touch with nature. You might have a small
balcony with little sun and lots of wind, or a small, shady courtyard with
worn-out soil, or an exposed, gusty rooftop. You certainly have windows
~ and if
there are windows, you can have windowboxes!
You can grow flowers and foliage plants suited for sun or shade; herbs, small salad greens and other vegetables,
miniature roses, little bulbs and small evergreens. You can change plants
with the seasons for different displays in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Create a windowbox to suit your own style
Bright flowers attract the butterflies and
ladybirds. A windowbox will give nature a place in the city.
 | Have a flamboyant, overflowing design, with
colourful plants that arch gracefully or tumble and cascade. |
|
 |
 |
 | Romantically styled windowboxes
full of movement and life ~ colours can be soft or bold, harmonious and related
or a riot of mixed hues. |
|
 | Go for a more formal look - a simple colour scheme can bring a much needed touch
of serenity to your life. |

If the windowbox is in bright sun, clear, strong colors look best ~ pastels
tend to fade. On the other hand, pastels and white are ideal for enlivening a
shady spot.
