Autumn/Winter Window Boxes

08-06-2009, 01:33 PM

I built some windowboxes this year which look great and are doing well. As I'm new to flower growing - can you advise what I should be looking to plant grow in them for late Autumn/Winter to give me a little colour and to save them from looking derelict in the cold dark months. Preferably things I can try and grow from seed or cuttings.

Marigolds don't flower in the winter though

Mind you, neither do winter pansies
