What kind of autumn plants to put on the window sills?
That's a question that pops up every season. Made it easy this time and stepped into the nearest flower shop and asked ideas. The boxes are 60x20cm.
Got back home with a punch of beautiful plants which are supposed to survive the winter as well.
In one box there're purple & white Ericas, one huge Hebe and one Skimmia.
Erica I knew and I know that it can survive the winter, just need to give water before it's freezing. Hebe & Skimmia were totally new to me. They both like cool places and need also watering if the temperature is pretty high, and a couple of temperature below zero won't do any harm.
They all like to get sprayed every now and then.
Let's hope i can enjoy these beautiful colors for the whole season!

Joka vuosi sama ongelma - mitä sitä istuttaisi ikkunalaudan laatikoihin syksyksi? Tällä kerta tein asian helpoksi ja marssin suoraan kukkakauppaan kysymään apua. Kotiin palasin kassit täynnä upeita ja minulle uusia kukkia.
Erikan tunsn entuudestaan ja tiedän, että sitä pitää kastella aina ensi pakkasiin asti. Sen sijaan Hebe ja Skimmia olivat aivan uusia tuttavuuksia. Samaa pätee niihinkin eli nyt kun vielä on kelit lämpimiä pitää muistaa kastella niitä riittävästi. Molemmat kestävät pikkupakkasia.
Toivottavasti saan nauttia tästä kauniista väriloistosta koko sesongin!
