Say it with flowers

Woow what a wonderful council perhaps other councils should do the same. after all its out council tax!

So much planning must go into these wonderful plant designs.

great pics balcony, last year i tried to make a union jack in a bed on plot with lobelia ..i planned it and marked it all out..it was rubbish and cost a small fortune so i know how hard it is to do ..i wont be trying it again ..lol

This is wonderful Bal, our town council no where near as artistic :~((

Wow! Its wonderful what can be done with flowers! What wonderful
displays...Our Council are not too bad with their Gardening Displays
I wish there was more of them....Nice Blog Balcony. `You live in a lovely
Historic County...Very pretty!

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments.

I think we must be pretty lucky here in Huntingdon with our council gardeners they put on some great displays & I like to photograph them - even if I do feel a bit of a fool for doing so!

You shouldn't feel a fool at all taking photos of them, they're great and it would be very rewarding to the Council workers if they saw you.
They're better than the one a couple of years ago done by a council worker who was being made redundant and when it grew it said 4-letter words to the Council boss! Still clever though.

Very pretty flower displays..

Beautiful displays,Balcony,ours in our local villages had the big squre tiered planters last year,and were ajoy to see.We only have the hanging baskets in town,as not really any green spaces like yours,to do that,but still nice to see....

Mad,that made me smile,naughty boy !!:o))

What a lovely job your council do

Shame there isn't more space to make up flower beds where you live,Bloomer. They lighten our days so much.

The council also plants & looks after the flower bed in the block of flats where we live. This autumn they planted some pale yellow/cream Pansies. They didn't look like much over the winter but for the last month they have been a terrific display. On dark, gloomy, rainy days they really "light up" & make you cheerful! Without a doubt just a glimpse of them is enough to lift your spirits. :-)

great flower displays..........

I forgot about all the beautiful display's of crocus we have in the grassed areas.but as they die down,there is nothing to replace them,which is a shame,but at least we have welcome sight after the winter,much needed too.As you say,Balcony,its lifts your spirits.

It's nice to see these displays are being kept up in some places. They're a work of art

I quite agree with you, Hywel! It's nice to see that our gardeners here have some imagination!
