Herb Box

Ryan and I have have a cozy roof top deck that's great to entertain on and gets ample sunlight, so a few succulent pots decorated the patio in no time! To ensure it didn't get too crowded, we added hanging herb boxes instead of having them on the ground.


Home Depot had everything to make this work--the planters are supported by the metal box that clips onto the balcony and no screws were needed to mount it.


We planted rosemary, lettuce, basil, parsley, fennel, and mint and they have made their appearances in a few dishes too!


Maybe we will plant some seasonal fruits and vegetables this spring!

Warmly,
Jamie

    That looks attractive and functional too! Can't wait to see it in person in a couple of days. :)

    I love your deck and the adjacent laundry room/butler's pantry/bar. Sounds weird but the set-up works well for entertaining and getting a load of wash done.
