    Hi guys,

    As the title suggests I have two east facing window boxes that I want to plant up for summer. The previously had daffodils. A lot of thing I tried last year didn't fare too great so i'm wondering if anybody can suggest some flowers /plants that would hopefully flourish?

    Thanks in advance

    Try Scabiosa aka Pincushion Flower. S. 'Butterfly Blue' and S. 'Pink Mist' are wonderfully longflowering plants and generally reliable. There are other varieties, but these would be prferred.

    Do not allow boxes to become too dry.
