Oh Wow ... Those are exceptionally nice! I was in San Diego two years ago for my nephew's wedding and one morning he took us to a favorite spot of his for breakfast burrito's (which were amazing by the way!) but I went walking in the neighborhood while we were waiting for breakfast and fell in love with all the gardens ... so many beautiful succulents growing in people's yards and businesses! Wouldn't you know it ... I didn't have my camera with me! The next time I'm in southern California I'm going to get him to take me back there so that I can get some pictures!

I just love the looks of those window boxes ... my favorites are photo's 3 and 6!!

Very nice.
I almost thought you used the same window and changed the boxes :)
I wish I could grow such succulents at my windows!

There were quite a few more, but I only took pictures of the ones I loved best.

They're lovely!
Gardening is cheaper than therapy!
