That window box is gorgeous. I understand if you have a theme that works, do it every year. You should be proud of how much you've grown yourself from seed.
Purple Hyacinth Bean is one of my absolute favorites 💜 I was introduced to it by my Godmother Aunt Betty a number of years ago and have planted it every year since. She has since passed away from breast cancer so now I grow it and share seeds every year in honor of her. 💜
It's interesting how plants remind you of people. My aunt and uncle gave me a stonecrop plant 10 years ago. Still going strong They both passed away since then.
@@tvcat3665 It really is. I grow things every year that remind me of my grandparents. I also love how the smell of certain plants to this too. Grandpa definitely smelled of tomato leaves and grandma of marigolds! 🍅🏵🍅🏵🍅
I learn so much from your videos and I know exactly what to plant now, thankyou. Also I look forward to seeing Oden and his twin in your videos, almost steal the show! Great pups. Love it.
My window boxes in San Antonio, Texas have white and purple petunias across the back, asparagus fern in the center, and purple sweet potato vine spilling over the front. I love window boxes too!
Beautiful already and I'm sure it'll be perfection! Great combination of plants and colors. 👍 Love seeing your big teddy bears. 🥰 ADORABLE! Thank you for your videos. 🙏💚🌿🌸
Omg, my Dane had the same type of cameo in a video my husband was doing for his business after a few shipments had to come to our home while the storefront was closed. There is something especially hilarious and goofy when a dog is giant! Oh.....loved the rest of the video too. 😋
I love the purple hyacinth bean along with the Peachy Keen Superbena and 'Splash' licorice vine. I can't wait to see that window box fill in, it will be striking! Love your dogs, they have the sweetest temperament. I think Oden has a cousin living somewhere close to my house because he's visited me twice in the past week. He's an incredibly sweet dog and so darn friendly! ~Margie
Oden was trying to tell you something! LOL At least doesn't whine and chatter over you. That looks like it will make a lovely window box. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
I love Oden! In my favorite container I planted a white Bacopa, a Dark Tower Penstemon, supertunia bubblegum, superbena whiteout and supertunia Picasso in purple. Can't wait to see how it looks a month from now.
Love those colors and combinations. My window boxes are horrible this year. I’m just about ready to tear it all out and start over 😡 it’s a terrible challenge for me and I don’t know why. Hopefully I can gather some more ideas from here. I love the tall vines! Wonderful idea. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
Lisa Walters It can be really frustrating when containers don’t come together the way you envision them. Is it just that the plants haven’t grown much yet or do you think that it’s not going to get better? Personally when a container has gone wrong for me it’s usually one of two things: too many plants fighting with each other or an issue with the texture and sometimes they are one in the same. Bold texture contrasting with fine texture almost never goes wrong.
@@TheImpatientGardener I do think it's both. Lady at the nursery talked me into using tall rosemary as the height instead of a small evergreen like I wanted. Put your chosen plants with it like you want, she said. 🤬 who is the bigger fool, me or her? ME! We are camping this weekend but come next week I'm tearing them out. I dont even like rosemary! 🤦♀️
I just planted light pink mandevillas, heliotrope, and blue skies supertunias in a whiskey barrel. I love mandevillas when they drape rather than climb so I’m excited to see how these all work together
I love the peachy keen superbena! And I love that your box looks like a newly planted container and has room to grow. And I love that Odin adds his two cents worth!
I have a huge vintage cast iron cauldron that I plant every year. This year is orange canna and orange and yellow gazania. Both new to me. I’m loving it!
Tell us about your drip ..... I’d like to see someone that had drip that wasn’t sooo perfect. Those perfect systems are intimidating. Also, I think it’s interesting to know how long it takes to do projects. Puts in perspective for us. Love your channel. Thank you!
Hi Erin! I planted a 21” round container that has Truffula Pink Gomphrena in the middle, and supertunia limoncello and diamond frost euphorbia alternating around the perimeter. Nothing spectacular at the moment, but should be fun when it fills in!
I’m pretty sure it’s dead and the more I think about it, the more I think it was dead when I repotted it. The good news is that dead boxwoods still look sort of ok for a bit so it’s still there waiting for a miracle.
lovely! and I wanted to thank you for speaking out on instagram recently and posting some awesome pages from black gardeners! I have followed each one of the ones you recommended.
Love the colors! I like doing containers especially supertunias bubblegum black cherry velvet purple and other PW annuals to long to name them all and the new supertunia white snow drift!
We love all your plants, but we have to admit, you furball stole the show!!! ❤️ Beautiful plants, I don't think these are available in Greece, but I'll keep an eye out for those!! I can only garden in containers, so thank you for the inspiration. I'm working on my "gradient/ombre" jungle, so I have dozens of containers with various plants (climbers, shrubs, bulbs, seeds and just a few annuals) of similar colours, and I think (and hoping) it'll be the first year it'll actually show!! I was also hoping I'd film everything for my channel, but technology totally let me down, so I'll at least try to have some tours... Have a wonderful day!! ☺️
I used the peachy keen verbena in my containers this year too! with prince tut papyrus and supertunia honey in turquoise ceramic containers. I love how tropical it all looks together!
It's lovely! Can't wait to see it filled in. I have a trio of terra cotta pots ranging is sizes grouped at the start of my walkway with a double Shepard's hook in the center with hanging baskets, all have periwinkle bright eyes, yellow stonecrop sedum that cascades and the largest pot also has a white ruffled clematis and red cypress vine that climbs the Shepard's hook, with a few zinnas in the center. I've repeated some of the same flowers in large pots that flank the steps at the other end. On my porch (which is mostly shade) I have hostas with impatiens and ferns.
I love shade containers - hosta, fern (either tassel or autumn), variegated Swedish ivy, huchera for color maybe. I guess I like a lot of green and texture mostly! Looking forward to seeing your window box as it fills in and the climbing vine especially.
This year my favorite container has silver berry and snowdrift supertunia vista with diamond mountain euphorbia and lastly a pink dahlia. All PW! Laura has me sold on their plants 😂
I love your window box and choice of plants. So pretty together. I too 💕 containers...have way too many. We are on town water so a drip system would cost a fortune. I have lots of rain barrels. One of my favourite and you are right doesn’t look like much at first planting is a 3 tier combination I do for a shade area. I pile 3 pots kind of inside one another only planting in the outer rim, hard to explain. I usually use inpatients 2 different colours in the bottom 2 tiers then the top coleus, but the magic happens mid summer as they grow and bush out...looks like one big ball of flowers, you can’t see the containers. That is just one of my favs. Love your channel btw...you are down to earth girl!
That’s what pruners are for! In all seriousness though, I’ve grown several robust vines in containers and they never seem to get too wild. I think the container situation really limits their growth, often more than I’d like.
This year the majority of my annuals are red. It is amazing the variety of textures that it is bringing to my pots and hanging baskets. I’m trying to phase my perennials that direction as well. I live on a wooded lot and love the pop of color it gives. I’ve thrown in some occasional gold as an accent and, of course, for the ISU Cyclones! Go state!
Loved the dog kisses. Lovely flower colors. I needed a "pick me up" this morning that your video provided. I moved a small hydrangea tree that viburnums were crowding--right before an unexpected 96 degree, high wind day. It looks like it isn't going to make it. Grrr nasty Spring this year in Iowa.
Jan M. Water it twice a day. Make sure it’s only getting morning sun. Sounds like it’s just stressed. Cut back the tree so it’s not sending nutrients to make blooms. Cut back to your first leaf node. U may be sacrificing blooms this year but it will save ur hydrangea tree. I’ve been able to revive 3 of my hydrangea tree standards this way. Best of luck.
@@beccagiessing3890 Thank you so much for answering. I have been diligently watering, I can't think of a way to shelter from sun without building some sort of tent, and knew I would have to cut back but wasn't sure how soon to cut back, wait until leaves are crispy or go ahead and do it now?
I too really struggled to find the annuals and perennials I was looking for this year. Luckily I propagated a bunch of lemon corral Sedum over winter and have those in containers and all over in the landscape this year.
Gorgeous window box, I’m sure in a few weeks it’s going to make a great showing. Love seeing your dog, he made me smile giving your a kiss absolutely priceless. Thanks for sharing. The garden centre here are all still very busy and I have to say not enjoyable to be shopping at with the adding distancing to content with so I’m also paring back.
This year I bought an aqua pot placed between my garage doors. I have planted a dark leaf elephant ear in center, with white supertunia mini vista , white mounding mandevilla, asparagus fern, white lantana, and white Thunbergia. Would love to add photo.
It looks great😁 wish I had window boxes 😉 actually my pansies are still looking great, don't hsve the heart to rip them out and switch over for summer🤣 hope there are some nice plants left when it comes time 😉
Great plants and video! The only place I could find Peachy Keen this year was in hanging baskets mixed with supertunia honey. I had to deconstruct the pots to get them out to put them in the beds. It was harder than I thought it would be 🤣
Ah man - I grew the supertunia morning glory charm last year and it was incredible. I had 1 plant in a 24 inch wide container and it covered 2/3 of that container by it self and spilled over the side. I haven’t been able to find it under its new name yet this year but I’m still looking!
I'm in zone 5 Iowa,and I totally feel like I'm behind on planting everything it's nice to see that you are still out there putting plants in. I hope you give us an update on your vegetable garden soon 🤗 also I purchase my very first hydrangea after watching several of your videos. I ended up purchasing little lime hydrangea from proven winners, Unfortunately a deer or rabbit has came and snipped off several tops on my hydrangea. Hoping that it perks backup I'm guessing I will not see much growth this year.
I have a railing planter with 3 deep coral almost orange double begonias with two white superbells with yellow throats in front of the gaps of the 3 begonias with a dark purple leaf sweet potato vine between the petunias. I'm loving it this year.
Thank you for your videos, you're very down to earth and have a great sense of humor! You inspired me to plant a window box this year on our shed. You also got me interested in dahlias, I may have plant 3 or 34 I can't keep track😉
That will be so pretty, love those colors! Here in NC I have already cut back my supertunias! I moved here from WV and cutting back this early was weird. I used purple ice verbena, royal supertunia purple, bubblegum and pink geraniums which got swallowed up! Haha
I am IN LOVE with the idea of the trellis!!! How clever!! I never thought of framing the window :) I live in a 2 story ol' farmhouse and mull over putting window boxes for the 2nd story - but know that would be nightmare chore to water. For my window boxes this year I did, Osteospermjm Zion Morning Sun, Supertunia White, and Ace of Spades Sweet Potato Vine. Then in the matching "planters" for the entry, I did Thunbergia TowerPower Yellow, Supertunia White, and Ace of Spades Potato Vine. My hanging baskets have PW Golden Butterfly, White Dianthus, and Midnight Grandiflora Petunia.
Love this combo (and love your Newfies - big fluff balls 🥰). Why no window box on the other lower window? I have 2 hay rack window boxes. Since they are mostly in shade I used a begonia with double flowers in coral, a white single flower begonia, a white impatient, coleus, sweet potato vine and a variegated ivy on either end. The ivy and impatient have green leaves, coleus has green with purple veining and the rest have purple/bronze foliage. So far I like the combo.
Two issues with a window box on the other window: 1. That window is much lower than the window where I have the window box, so I'm not sure how that would look. 2. The bigger issue is that our cellar doors are right there and when opened they reach to right underneath the window so there's probably no room for another window box. I'd love to have more though!
Hello, Love your dogs! They're obviously well trained. I'm new to gardening. I have petunias and creeping Jenny in my containers. I had dracena spikes in but took out since they're toxic to pets. Karla
I am going to be living vicariously through your window boxes this year because the only plants I could buy this year were red geraniums. The garden centers in my area have been bought out! Looking forward to seeing how your look through the season!
That is going to be gorgeous. I love the color combo. Have you considered putting another window box on the window to the right? I think that would look so pretty. My containers this year are light blue, light purple, coral and soft yellow. I’m loving the soft cool colors with a little pop.
I so loved your conversation with your pup:first a kiss to mom, then does what mom requests and lyes down I so love your presentation of plants and everything. Love your window box planter I may have missed- did your husband build it.? Or where did you obtain this planter, thank you for your vidios and everything
Omg! Your dog is adorable! The window box is pretty, now. The colors are beautiful! Hey, how are the roses doing that you put in the containers? Just curious... thanks for posting. I never miss when you get your fingers dirty, girl!
Your window box is always amazing. My favourite this year is very “fiesta” with pink skyscraper salvia, empress sun pink verbena, angelart orange nemesia and purple fountain grass. I just love the combination of pink and orange, it’s such a summer vibe.
I love it! I love the pale blue and peach together! My favorite container this year is a 30 inch hayrack that I put just two Supertunia 'Blue Skies' on each side and one 'Diamond Frost' euphorbia in the middle. I love the simplicity and how lush it already looks! And the smell! I love how petunias smell. Sometimes close to twilight I am standing by it when it releases its perfume for the evening! It is enchanting.
Oden is a sweetie!🥰 He’s just making sure you’re okay because there’s no one else there and you’re talking and talking.🤣
He clearly does think that I'm insane.
"Um, excuse me Sir......" LOL

Love Oden, he’s a little bear💚🙃
I love seeing your pups !! Pup kisses are the best! Beautiful window box as usual!!
Odin is precious 😍 Love your choice of flowers 🌸
Thank you for actually putting a list of the plants you used in the description..so helpful 👍
Love it when Odin makes an appearance! Always look forward to see that window box and the Dahlias! 🌿🌸
My window boxes in San Antonio, Texas have white and purple petunias across the back, asparagus fern in the center, and purple sweet potato vine spilling over the front. I love window boxes too!
The texture is the asparagus fern is a great addition to that mix!
Beautiful already and I'm sure it'll be perfection! Great combination of plants and colors. 👍 Love seeing your big teddy bears. 🥰 ADORABLE! Thank you for your videos. 🙏💚🌿🌸

Since they are mostly in shade I used a begonia with double flowers in coral, a white single flower begonia, a white impatient, coleus, sweet potato vine and a variegated ivy on either end. The ivy and impatient have green leaves, coleus has green with purple veining and the rest have purple/bronze foliage. So far I like the combo.
Two issues with a window box on the other window: 1. That window is much lower than the window where I have the window box, so I'm not sure how that would look. 2. The bigger issue is that our cellar doors are right there and when opened they reach to right underneath the window so there's probably no room for another window box. I'd love to have more though!

That is going to be gorgeous. I love the color combo. Have you considered putting another window box on the window to the right? I think that would look so pretty. My containers this year are light blue, light purple, coral and soft yellow. I’m loving the soft cool colors with a little pop.
Love the combination you've chosen. Also the grass behind you looks so lush and green.
LOVE the overhead camera view!
Lovely garden even More lovely dog c
I so loved your conversation with your pup:first a kiss to mom, then does what mom requests and lyes down I so love your presentation of plants and everything. Love your window box planter I may have missed- did your husband build it.? Or where did you obtain this planter, thank you for your vidios and everything
Love that combo! One of my cats looks just like Oden! A mini me version 😂
Omg! Your dog is adorable! The window box is pretty, now. The colors are beautiful! Hey, how are the roses doing that you put in the containers? Just curious... thanks for posting. I never miss when you get your fingers dirty, girl!
So far they are doing GREAT! I hope that keeps up.
I stick to the same combination.....supertunia vista buggle gum, silver berry and fucia.....I love this colour combo.
It’s a classic for a reason!
Your window box is always amazing.
My favourite this year is very “fiesta” with pink skyscraper salvia, empress sun pink verbena, angelart orange nemesia and purple fountain grass. I just love the combination of pink and orange, it’s such a summer vibe.
I am loving the variegated licorice plant, everywhere you plant it, it looks fabulous.
Ps your dogs are precious my best friend my sis is Dorothy
Loving the window box, Erin! It’s gonna look really great!
I am trying to keep a theme this year. I'm usually loosey goosey. I did lots of white with purplely and peaches.
Gonna be lovely🌱
It looks lovely 🥰
I love it! I love the pale blue and peach together! My favorite container this year is a 30 inch hayrack that I put just two Supertunia 'Blue Skies' on each side and one 'Diamond Frost' euphorbia in the middle. I love the simplicity and how lush it already looks! And the smell! I love how petunias smell. Sometimes close to twilight I am standing by it when it releases its perfume for the evening! It is enchanting.
You can't go wrong with blue and white in my book, and that Diamond Frost looks so good with everything.
