We used to call them Window Boxes but that stopped when we realized they were hanging on porch railings and decks more often than window sills.
Then the nom du jour became flower boxes, but who wants to plant only flowers when ornamental grasses, vines and even small conifers can be part of the mix? They may be the smallest gardens around, but putting them together is big fun.
Call them what you will you will always call them pretty, as the following images surely attest. Some of the photos were taken in Chicagoland others arrived courtesy of Flower Framers of Cincinnati, a Cincinnati based company that manufactures fiberglass flower boxes and distributes them
nationwide.
