Michael Hillegas Quotations

If between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., it gets two or less hours of direct sunlight, then you can really only work with shade plants. Two to four hours of direct sunlight, then you can work with mixed plants. If it's greater than four hours in that area, then you can work with a full sun plant.

People are in condos or things such as this and they don't have a garden, so this way they get a little bit of nature right as they look out the window.

Line the window box with small bubble wrap on the inside because that will prevent heat being transferred over to the root system of the plant.

I usually suggest a perennial and something that stays evergreen.

It's like a three-tier cake. If it's a window box, I definitely want something to drape over.
