flower box
Sill-mounted container
A flower box is a long, narrow container for growing flowers or plants, typically mounted on a windowsill or porch railing.
The classic image is a wooden or plastic box overflowing with geraniums or petunias beneath a window: The flower boxes added color to the otherwise plain facade.
