Sunbeams for Your West or South Window

This sunny window box elegantly accents a home. It's an early- to midsummer bloomer filled with perennials and shrubs hardy in zones 7 to 9. When plants finish flowering, move them to your yard. (In cold areas, overwinter them indoors or treat them as annuals.) Possible substitutions for cold areas include potentilla for the cytisus, bidens for genista and strawflowers for marguerites.
