If your urban planter boxes are baking in the sun all day, you need plants that can handle the heat. Many beautiful and productive plants actually thrive in these conditions. For vibrant flowers that won't wilt, consider sun-loving varieties like Lantana, which blooms relentlessly in intense heat. Verbena and Zinnias are also excellent choices, providing long-lasting color. For edible options, Mediterranean herbs are your best bet. Rosemary, thyme, and oregano are naturally drought-tolerant and love sunny spots. Succulents like Sedum and Sempervivum (Hens and Chicks) are virtually indestructible in hot, sunny planters. When planting, use a high-quality potting mix and consider adding water-retaining crystals to help moisture last longer between waterings. A layer of mulch on top of the soil can also reduce evaporation. With the right plant selection and a little care, your sun-drenched planter boxes can be a lush, thriving oasis all season long.
