Ideas for plants.

Question

I am trying to make some indoor window boxes 6x 28 inches and I need some ideas as to what plants will works best.  2 windows have great sun during the day the other 2 have no direct sunlight but get good light. Windows all have east and west light.

Answer 1

What a great project! Most herbs will do well in window boxes, and many are tolerant of a little shade. Any trailing flowers in your sunny boxes will be happy if they get plenty of water. Nasturtiums love window boxes, as do fuchsias. Consider miniature roses or wildflowers...the sky is the limit.

Here's some suggestions:
