Curb Appeal
Our warm weather has returned and you probably want to spend some time outdoors in the garden. Looking for way to enhance the curb appeal of your home? Smith and Hawkins currently has window boxes on sale.

The best time to spruce up your home is while you are enjoying it, too many home owners make the mistake of delaying improvements until the time they place their home on the market.

Window boxes are great whether they have flowers or my favorite herbs a real crowd pleaser. I like the fresh herbs on the back porch for easy access when cooking nothing smells better than fresh basil growing. I have a dog who loves to roll in the basil leaves makes him smell good to.

It's amazing every house that ever had a flower box the first impression when entering the home was a smile and real charm it added to the property.

Many people use the box to not only add flowers but to decorate during a holiday. Right now in our area they are all filled with easter eggs and bunnies and pretty flowers. It's nice to see as you drive down the street.

I use to have them on a house years ago. Advice is drainage holes in the bottom and to use that gel stuff and perlite to hold the moisture so you don't have to water them as much.
