Everything you touch turns to Beautiful !
I have those purple plants that I bring inside the house every fall and replant them outside in the spring. They are beautiful and they can go very big. What a beautiful recipe you did. I will follow yours next year 2023. Thank you.

Christopher, Thank you so much for the tips. I love your videos.
I am jealous of your green thumb. I,for one, can easily kill a plant in no time! You make it look easy and beautiful....encouraging me to try!!!
Window boxes just seem to make the areas they're placed in so cheery and beautiful!! These are no exception!!! 🌺🌹💐🌸🌷⚘️
Your patio looks so inviting. Love the window boxes.
Hello Christopher...absolutely gorgeous planters! I like the idea of the "coffee cup plant," but I have not seen that plant in the Pacific Northwest. And I love the purple, green and variegated plant combination. I will be planting my window boxes this weekend and will choose most of those plants for sure! Enjoyed the video! Hugs!
Lovely!👏❤️
I really like the way you make your decorations:) keep on 👏👏👏
Oh Christopher!!! Love your window boxes and potted plants and flowers!
I'm in an apt now, so I've been trying to think of ways to garden indoors.
But there are quite a few flowers that can grow indoors, THANK GOD!!!
Wishing you and Tim a sweet growing season and a happy spring /summer!
🍃🤗🍃
Love it!!🥰
Lovely
HI Christopher, it's so great to see you and your great diy. Window boxes are great in the summer and winter to decorate. Stay safe
Love the purple! We just downsized and moved into a new, smaller home. We have placed plastic flower pots in the landscaping beds around our porch and I originally thought I would use purple but went with pink Bubblegum supertunias. Seeing your purple I think I will definitely go purple next year. Happy Spring to you!
Thanks Jackie! Pink would look great too! The supertunias come in so many great colors!
That would have been plants I would not have considered for a window box but they are beautiful
I use a lot of hostas in pots...I love hostas
Just got told today my park is giving us a free flat of flowers this year, it used to be every year till 2020 (virus). They're usually petunias and I already have my planters and potting soil ready 🌺🌼
That's fun & great that they are starting that tradition up again! :)
I just love window boxes 💜🦋
This is so beautiful Christopher.
Everything is so beautiful ❤️❤️
I love the colors you picked out for your window box. And I love the coffee cup plant! I could only imagine if the scent smelled like coffee and having that scent all summer long. Beautiful job as always! 🌺🌼💚🌺🌼💚🌺
Very pretty. Nice ideas for planter boxes. Thank you. Love your videos and look forward to them.
the window boxes are such a beautiful composition of color and texture. When you said you like a flowering plant, a spilling plat.. we have a theory of A thriler , a filler and a spiller. Works every time. Also I agree those boxwood balls and any conical shape evergreen are the anchors. Once establised you don't have to keep replacing like our annual color . You have the "bones" there for shape and form.
Hi Christopher : those window boxes turned into a mastetpiece . Doesn't take much of a box tobe a beautiful work of art !! I'm trying to start some seedlings which have never done . Personally my thing is planting perennials. TFS & have a great weekend !!
❤️❤️❤️
Can you show a shade planter some time? Love the purple colors very elegant against the house
Thanks Becky! Pretty much all of our planters get mostly full sun or part sun. I will keep your suggestion in mind if I plant a shade planter though! Some coleus like the shade & there are some beautiful showy plants for shade planters like caladiums (instead of the coffee cups) :)

The planter boxes are pretty and just wait until they take off!
What will you do with the boxwood in planters over Winter?
Thanks for the money saving tips. Love everything you do. ❤
Thanks Jane! I’m thinking of planting the boxwoods in the area behind the garage where the pine shrubs aren’t doing well this fall 🙂

👍
Absolutely beautiful!!!!! Can all those flowers take full sun???? Thank You
Hi Sherry, these are all full to part sun plants I believe, & about a week later, they seem to be enjoying their spot :)

the window boxes are beautiful but most coleus is a shade plant, (did you get the sun variety? i hope) also purple heart is a shade plant, if left in the sun the leaves will close up together...just saying' a few tips ;). Take care love your videos!!
Thanks! Both the type of coleus I chose and the purple heart plant are full sun to part shade - so for sun requirements they should be good, but their real danger are the squirrels that like to dig in the window boxes & planters lol :)

Wont those coffee cups overwhelm the window box?
Though they can get larger, when I had them in planters at my grandma's (in full sun) they got about a foot and a half tall by the end of summer. The coleus can get the same height (even taller) but I wanted to try for a larger look this year. I think coffee cups plants can be kept as a houseplant too, and if kept inside in a larger container year round, I'm sure they would get big! I'm probably going to try to bring them indoors early fall when I plant mums :)
