The variety of styles available in window boxes has expanded significantly over the past few years. You can now take advantage of the lightweight materials such as fiberglass and resin in many styles—often with a contemporary look for newer homes.
You will also find a great variety of metals being used for window planters. Recently wrought iron window boxes have become very popular. A particular style of planter called 'hayrack' has become very popular recently as they create a less 'boxy' or heavy look. These planters are very attractive with moss liners or used as 'cache pots'—planters that hold other planters. Also, consider self-watering window planters for those hard to reach locations.Characteristics of Window Planters & Boxes
