the answers to your questions are:
yes, they will grow well in a window box
and if you put them in individual pots inside the window box (fill the area with moss or something) you can bring the pots in when it starts to get cold!

Yep, ditto on Jiffy's idea!
Remember, most herbs like it dry and warm....
And fast draining!!!!
So the window sill is a good place for them.
Grow them in seperate pots, and bring them in to
your kitchen window sill or the sunniest one.....
*hey, even if they die in the house again,
you've got your dried herbs right there...
Can you pull the couch out a little bit and
put a smaller plant stand behind it and put the containers on there???
Just a thought!!!

TwoGreenThumbsUp,Welcome to the Gardener's Forum.
Jiffymouse: hey, it's a great idea to plant herbs in individual pots (inside the window box).
We have some baker's racks, two are on the balcony near the kitchen/dining room windows which we use for growing small herbs. Sweet basil, cilantro, oregano, chives, green onion, garlic, and mints are grown in separate 13" containers or half wine/whiskey barrels..
