This big container is one of possibly 35 around our town. I guess I may have to count them. We used to have wooden containers. Now it's these black poly types. I love the colors , they are all the same as far as flowers and plants go.
Some of my lilies bloomed . There's something growing among them. It looks like carrot tops. Can anyone tell me what this might be, as I do not have a clue. It's so healthy looking, so I am pretty sure it's a weed. What do you think?
We are having a gentle rain right now, I do not know how long it will last. Hope your day is nice. xo
I love to see flower pots around town, or anywhere for that matter! I can't help with your weed, I have a very tall plant of my own that I am pondering.
ReplyDeleteI am loving our town's containers this year. Last year they were all different. That plants is a wild carrot...Nana Diana says. Too bad it's not real carrots. xoxo,Susie
Deletep.s. Linda, I am praying you are doing oaky.
My hometown has pots of flowers like that around town and I always enjoy seeing the new plants for the seasons. I love your lilies. Yes, that is probably a weed since it is doing well!
ReplyDeleteLast year all the store had different flowers, this year every thing is the same and it looks so much better. Nana Diana says that's a wild carrot. It does smell like carrots too. xoxo,Susie
DeleteThe flower pot is beautiful as are your lilies. I suspect the lovely green with the lilies is probably a weed!
ReplyDeleteBeth, Those pots around town look so pretty. Last year each store had their own designs. I like unified ones better. That is a weed, for sure. LOL. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI like your lilies!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a clue about your mystery plant.
Kimberly, Someone said those were wild carrots....they do smell like carrots when I pull them up...but there's nothing on them like a carrot. LOL. xoxo,Susie
DeleteLove the beautiful flower filled planter.
ReplyDeleteTipton is such a nice town, Susie.
There is something to be said for small town pride.

Lynne, I love our little town. It's nice to see it all taken care of so well. But boy our sidewalks are a fright mostly. Not in town, they are nice. I love our park also. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteIt does look like carrot tops but I have no idea. Did you see the second comment I left on your post yesterday? I'm trying to stir up trouble! hahaha! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteDiane, Yes, I saw the comment, I just now got around to reply back to N.Diana. So funny, that girl. Someone said those were wild carrots and they are invasive. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI love towns that has pretty plants and flowering trees. I have plenty of weeds in my beds,I just need to get busy pulling them up.
ReplyDeleteSylvia, We have little trees in town also. They have been replaced at times. They need to keep them from poking people .xoxo,Susie
DeleteI am so happy your town does planters. That is always such a nice touch.
ReplyDeleteI think that might be wild carrots, Susie- Harmless but they can kind of take over. We have them here, too.
I don't usually read other comments but did you see that Diane up there instigating trouble? I left you a nice little "note" on her blog yesterday-lol xo Diana
Diana, I am so glad our town put these planters out to beautify our town a bit. Well yes, I know you left me a special messege...I will tell you I wear my big girl panties all the time....they may be on my head some days, but they are on. LOL. Love you, Susie
DeleteOh my! I'm so happy to be making trouble all over blog land! It just makes my day! hahaha! Have FUN!!!
DeleteLovely photos!!

Thank you . Glad you stopped by. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteThe planters are so pretty! I just love it when a town dresses itself up...just shows pride and looks so nice. I think it makes homeowners want to do the same. Our town does planters and hanging baskets...and I love when they add flags to all the poles for the patriotic holidays.
ReplyDeleteLinda, We do flag on holidays also. It gives us a home town pride. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
Deletethe planters are lovely! I have no idea what that plant is, enjoy the soft rain,
ReplyDeleteLaurie, Nana Diana said that is a wild carrot. They do smell like carrots when ever I pull them up. Hope you are feeling much better. Being ill is sure no fun, especially in summer. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI love seeing pots of flowers around town. We have hanging pots downtown. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteThere is a town north of here that has the hanging baskets, they are even on the bridge that goes over the Wabash River. Of course it's a bit hard to water them , they have a little wagon with a pump to get water up to them. It all looks os nice for the towns though. Hope you are having a good day Laura, xoxo,Susie
DeleteCouldn't tell you what that plant is, Susie. I'm not good at recognizing plants.:-) xo Nellie
ReplyDeleteNellie, Nana Diana says it's a wild carrot...and that is what it smells like when I pull them up. They are actually a pretty greenery....could probably mix it with flowers. LOL. Hope you are safe and doing fine. We had a soft rain and cloudy skies. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteSusie, I love when the towns put out those pretty flowers and containers. Another great example is Sisters, OR. Really beautiful. Those leaves look very familiar to me but don't know why. Just wait and see what happens. I've seen some really pretty weeds!..Happy Tuesday..Judy
ReplyDeleteJudy, Some people call Queen Anne's Lace a weed and some call it a flower. I really like it. The carrot tops smell like carrots and Nana Diana says it's wild carrots...makes sense to me. LOL. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI don't think they could do that around here. Besides it's too crowded.
ReplyDeleteI might be able to council you on certain weed though.
The containers in NYC are as big as VW car. LOL. I was told that is a weed ...it's wild carrots. It's pretty but seems to be invasive. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI don't think we have the room for those large planters around here. It's very crowded.
ReplyDeleteDon't know much about gardening though I could council you on certain weeds.
Our small town square is on the historic register and is home to some of the nicest antique stores in the area.
ReplyDeleteLuckily the shop owners contribute to displays of potted containers, and to the upkeep. Like yours, it makes the town just a little more beautiful.
Not sure about your weed, still scratching my head :)
Jo, I love to see towns that take care of their town squares. That have hometown pride. That funny carrot looking thing is a weed. It's a wild carrot, pretty but invasive. xoxo,Susie
DeleteOur downtown could sure use some beautifying. very pretty planters. Pretty flowers make everyone happy!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to be around town and see all these pretty flowers. I need to find out how it all got started. xoxo,Susie
Deletei love seeing a touch of nature in the city where people are so busy with their lives that they sometimes forget to relax. I think flowers and plants and trees give a little something of that. A way for people to relax and adore nature. :")

Rae, Speaking of busy cities. NYC has some containers.....they are huge. Not every street but in many areas. I love to see that it truly is summer with all the flowers. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteSusie,
ReplyDeleteThese containers are so pretty all throughout your town. I love the colors. I wish I was having some gentle rain right now. It has been pretty hot here - in the 100's.
love,
~Sheri
We have a few flower pots here in town, but nothing that pretty. It looks like carrots to me, too! LOL- my yellow lilies are blooming, too.
