I love love love old gardening books too! Even if I don't want to emulate the style they describe in their pages, just having the covers showing on my bookshelves brings me so much joy.

Ha ha, definitely have those sorts of books--especially 1950s ones, but then sometimes the contrarian in me wonders, should I try to bring this style back? :)

The answer to that question is always yes!

We sure are kindred spirits- I let the Martha Stweart channel roll in addition to Gardener's World channel on Roku 😂

One of my favorite 1990s gardens is the neighbor's home in the movie "Honey I Shrunk the Kids". Such a classic 90s aesthetic that included plenty of window boxes.

I’m so relieved to hear that I’m not the only one! Last year I played the gardener’s world channel, too, but I think I’ve memorized every episode of it Monty Don’s American Gardens :(

Will have to give Honey I Shrunk The Kids a re-watch for that garden :)

Victoria Magazine! That brings me back - my mom was a subscriber. It's funny how things come back around and seem new and fresh again. Will be excited to see how your window box fills out!!!
