Buying a window planter? This is an easy way to keep plants and herbs if you have little or no outside space. It's also a smart way to do so since window planters benefit from direct sunlight – in most cases – and since they're outside, they can feel the rain. They are also easy to maintain and usually, they have drainage holes.
When buying a window planter, be sure to consider what it's made from and whether it suits your style. Window planters usually come in a range of sizes from around 10-inches long to anything up to 36-inches long. Be sure to pick one that comes in a range of colors, too. The best window planter is the Countryside flower box planter since it comes in four colors, four sizes, it has a removable drainpipe and it can be used indoors or out.
