I finally received the balcony railing brackets for my window boxes, so I could put my two 30” window boxes just outside my railing. They have gorgeous purple heliotrope, light pink/yellow/orange and deep rose/yellow/orange lantana, variegated vinca vines with red stems, portulaca, marigolds, and cherry pink calibrachoa. Looks beautiful, I get a lot of compliments. My 40 hostas on wire shelving get a lot of compliments, too. I didn’t want to mess with hummingbird feeders, so I installed 2 hanging pots on my balcony and planted fuschia in them. I also have a strawberry pot of pink verbena and deep purple petunias. Latest planting on balcony is a pair of large pots with lavender, marigold, mint, ageratum and lemon balm to act as natural mosquito repellents.
Sounds BEAUTIFUL! Your own little NYC Garden. ;)
