Window Boxes, Flower Pots and More





Hello Again From The French Hen's Nest,

While walking around Old Town, Sunday afternoon, I came across some beautiful flowers, flower boxes, and just lovely displays of flowers.  They are all beautiful to me.  I had started out to do a post about flower boxes, and I have some pretty ones here, but I just had to show you the other gorgeous flowers I found.  Hope that you enjoy!

This is a spring window box.  This picture really doesn't do it justice.











Some are simple








This is so beautiful, wish you could see it.





The long stemmed roses are the deepest red,
and just so beautiful




Lavender grows beautifully in the city; how pretty
can't you just smell it




***************



A salad box


Aren't these elegant



















 











Hope that you have enjoyed the flowers, most are spring flowers,
 because it has been unusually cool here.  I'll show you some summer window boxes
in a couple of months. 

Till Nest Time,


Jeannie

  5. I love window boxes! My daughter just got two and I told her I would help her plant them. We might do that on Mother's Day afternoon, if the weather cooperates. I can't wait to pick out the different plants for it.

    Thank you for visiting my French Grain Sack Table post and your nice comment! : )

    1. Hi Sandi, hope that you are doing well. The white flowers on the house are wisteria. I've never seen a white one before, but it's beautiful. It is exactly the same as the purple, only white. Blessings to you,
