No matter where you are in the world, window boxes full of colorful flowers give a warm impression. I think that the people who live here are thoughtful, caring, and creative, regardless if that is true or not. It is easy to take care of window boxes in Europe because most people do not have screens on their windows. There are not many flying bugs, so people just leave their windows open. Since window ledges are wider in Europe than in America, the boxes stay in place without any fasteners. The summer climate is temperate and rains on a regular basis, so even when Europeans take their month-long holiday, the flowers need no special treatment.
