What are the best plants to use in a window box that will be located in full sun? Are there different heights and things? |
For a hot sunny spot, marigolds would be a good choice, and Starbright zinnias, along with geraniums, Kenilworth ivy, and vinca. You'll find lots of other choices at your local garden center. If you choose both upright and trailing plants, your windowboxes will look terrific all summer long.
