I used to hate the plastic flowers until I rode around in the golf cart with my mother. She has very poor eyesight but noticed the "beautiful" flowers at the sides of someone's driveway. As we were driving past the next day, the woman was outside and we stopped and talked to her. She said she used to love gardening and always had beautiful flowers but now her hips and knees were so bad and she could not take care of the real flowers anymore. She loved seeing the color from her breakfast nook window every morning and my mother loves passing the plastic flowers in her golf cart. I still don't like the plastic flowers but I have a new outlook on them and smile when I see them.
