14 inspirational window box ideas

It's autumn but for many avid gardeners, it isn't too soon to start thinking about next Spring's planting season. Then again, for many people, ( I'm talking to all of you in warm weather climates) fall doesn't mean the end to growing flowers, especially in window boxes. I love window boxes and there is no better place to get inspired than in Charleston, South Carolina. 

Here are 14 beautiful flower boxes that I photographed in the fall. All are sure to give you plenty of inspiration for your own window boxes. Check them out!
