apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Last week we honored 28 Commerce Street for its flower boxes - this week we're drawn back to the very same block to bestow the award to the two boxes just a few doors down at 20 Commerce Street.

Stuffed into old, painted-white boxes are a fountain of potato-vine, coleus and other common flowerbox ingredients. What sets these boxes apart is the way the owner has clearly trained the vines to grow both up along the window frame and trail down toward the sidewalk. Some young trendrils of vine also made their way around the stem of a leaf of Elephant Ear. Gorgeous! SKG
