What plant herbs and flowers will withstand hot sunny conditions in window boxes?

There are dozens of plants that will do well in hot sunny window boxes. Two of my favourites are Rosemary and Nasturtium. Rosemary is one of the most fragrant of the culinary herbs and comes in both up-right and prostrate (low growing or trailing) forms. The leaves of this plant is great in soups and pasta sauces. It loves the sun and is drought tolerant. It is however not a plant that will over winter in cold climates. Nasturtiums are bright annuals that grow on vines, come in yellows, oranges and reds. These little plants thrive on neglect, in fact if you fertilise them you won't get as many flowers on them. Both the leaves and flowers are edible and have a crisp peppery flavour that goes well in salads.
