Planning Your Window Boxes For Spring Work Now
Planning your window boxes now yields a lush display next summer. An ordinary single window box costs less than a dollar to build using cedar, sized to fit 46 feet long by 8 inches deep and 10 inches wide, and should blend with the house color. Choose petunias for constant bloom and color variety, with balcony-type petunias and tall nasturtiums for draping effects. fragrant choices like matthiola, stocks, and dwarf dragon as accents. For shaded boxes, use foliage plants such as ferns and caladiums, while sunny spots support tuberous begonias and impatiens. Use rich rotting soil with ample plant food to sustain growth in limited box space.
Start Flower Seeds Early For A Long Bloom Display
Start seeds of annuals early to furnish the main summer display. The sooner seeds are started the sooner they bloom and the longer the display will endure. Get boxes ready by pickup day.
Preparations for Spring Planting in Seed Boxes
The guide describes sowing in March, filling seed boxes with soil prepared by thawing and drying, baking to kill weed seeds, and mixing with pulverized sheep manure. Early season prep reduces delays, with notes on seed boxes, labels, and starting plants indoors in sunny windows.
Wall Street Mixed Gains After Light Turnover
The market shows mixed results with slight morning gains in some blue chips. Trading activity remains tepid as investors weigh the latest corporate reports and economic signals amid a thin holiday atmosphere.
