# --description--
The last two challenges used the `flex-direction` property set to `row`. This property can also create a column by vertically stacking the children of a flex container.
# --instructions--
Add the CSS property `flex-direction` to the `#box-container` element, and give it a value of `column`.
# --hints--
The `#box-container` element should have a `flex-direction` property set to column.
```js
assert($('#box-container').css('flex-direction') == 'column');
```
# --seed--
## --seed-contents--
```html
<style>
#box-container {
display: flex;
height: 500px;
}
#box-1 {
background-color: dodgerblue;
width: 50%;
height: 50%;
}
#box-2 {
background-color: orangered;
width: 50%;
height: 50%;
}
</style>
<div id="box-container">
<div id="box-1"></div>
<div id="box-2"></div>
</div>
```
# --solutions--
```html
<style>
#box-container {
display: flex;
height: 500px;
flex-direction: column;
}
#box-1 {
background-color: dodgerblue;
width: 50%;
height: 50%;
}
#box-2 {
background-color: orangered;
width: 50%;
height: 50%;
}
</style>
<div id="box-container">
<div id="box-1"></div>
<div id="box-2"></div>
</div>
