What plants can be grown outside the window
I really like the lush and bright flowering plants in window boxes. Last year she planted petunia, but she grew long shoots with flowers only on the top, it did not look good. What plants can be planted so that the eye rejoices both from the inside of the apartment and from the street? I wish the flowering was continuous.
In order for plants in the window box to please the eye from spring to late autumn, it is desirable to have several containers (at least 2) and exhibit them in the appropriate period. In a spare box, you can grow and grow plants on a shift. Otherwise, a one-time landing will not be possible. This is especially true of spring flowers.
To spring flowers bloom outside the window, you will have to plant the bulb in the autumn in a box and bury a container in the garden or place it in the basement. Make a note on the box on which side the taller plants are planted, so as not to confuse during installation. With the onset of warming (the exact time depends on the region), the box gets their storage and is installed in the prepared place. Onion sprouts quickly. Your efforts will be rewarded with the first flowers of the year.
By the time the bulbs fade, the next container should be ready for replacement. Flowers are planted in it in the summer. When choosing plants, it is necessary to take into account the side of the world to which the windows and the floor of the residence overlook (on low floors, tall trees in the yard can shade the planting from the scorching rays of the sun).
On solar window sills, you can grow vervain, geranium, calendula, dwarf astra, portulac, cataranthus, zinnia, petunia, salvia, mimmulus, colossia, velvets, Drummond fluxes, lobelia, lawnium, dimorphotheque, dwarf dahlia, ageratum, nemesia, Korean chrysanthems, panties, etc.
On shaded (but not in full shadow!) window sills grow chlorophytum, ferns, ivy, azalea, coleuses (their leaves can lose their characteristic color and become habitually green).
Planting many plants of different species is undesirable, especially if these seeds or seedlings are new to you. Plants in reality can be very different from what is written on the bag or said by the seller. It is most likely to get the maximum effect from one plant species, but different varieties with flowers that differ in color. For example, petunias white go well with red, and yellow with purple.
I would like to emphasize the petunia mentioned in the question. Such plants were also obtained from the seeds of the Triumph F1 series. Buying seeds or seedlings of plants you need to know exactly how the variety or species will behave. For window boxes, cascading petunias are most suitable, for example, the Typhoon series. These plants form many branching upright (up to 25 cm), rather than hanging shoots strewn with many flowers. In many petunias of other series, by mid-July, the stems are already bare in the lower part and the plants lose their attractiveness. This does not apply to the Typhoon series. It should be noted that from strong wind plants can break, but this is not terrible, because they quickly recover. And the broken part can be used for rooting.
If you want to make a composition, you should carefully analyze the plants and their preferences for the acidity and nutrition of the soil. It is reasonable to plant upright plants closer to the glass, and the falling plants to the outer edge of the box.
In compositions, not only flowers play an important role, but also leaves (their color and size). Of particular interest are plants with silvery leaves, for example, seaside cineraria. Its openwork foliage, upright shoots and good health in the sun can transform any planting. There is also an ampel plant with silvery leaves - dichondra. If in the window box it is planted on the edge, then the growing shoots will hang down, associated with the waterfall. It looks very unusual, but the shoots will periodically need to be trimmed.
If closer to autumn pilots lose decorativeness or just get bored, they can be replaced by Korean short-sized small-flowered chrysanthemums. Grow them yourself in the third drawer or buy ready to decide for you. Given the palette of chrysanthemum flowers, they do not need partners. There may be different opinions and different decisions on this issue.
Plant, experiment, share experiences. It will not work with one type of plant, it will work with another. At any time, a dead or underdeveloped specimen can be replaced with something else. There is a lot to be found on sale now.
