I agree.
While I prefer the "real" thing in my own yard, not everyone has a green thumb, nor the time (or desire ) to spend in the garden. As for "plastic" flowers.....I think they were replaced with "silk" back in the 1970's. And there are some silk flowers that even a discriminating gardener would have to "touch" before they could tell the difference.

I find this thread amusing because TV residents have more serious issues going on right now than to worry about faux flowers in someone's yard.

As for those plastic flamingos........as long as they don't draw alligators and snakes.....I find that all part of the "charm" of living in TV....the more casual and "joie de vivre" lifestyle that I am seeking.

Speaking of Pink Flamingoes.... I was riding my bike in Pennecamp last weekend, heading down to the BIG house at the end of Baypoint Way (the 1.5 million dollar premiere). On one of the roads leading down there was a very lovely premiere home with about 50 pink flamingoes in the front yard. I thought it was some kind of neighborhood joke (a sign saying "you've been flocked" was out front) ... but, a neighbor walking by said they sell the flamingoes. It was quite a sight!!! I'm surprised community watch didn't flag them...this is definitely a deed restriction violation.

Back to plastic flowers ... I have seen a few and feel they don't look that 'fitting' in our semi-tropical environment, but, to each his own. I don't believe that putting these out is a violation of the deed restrictions.

Plastic flowers need to go
 

:ohdear: Still chuckling to myself! It's sad that people would put those plastic things in their yards! Very tacky!

Good morning, Whalen,

That is truly beautiful. They sure know how to linedance.

And I saw a few of them doing that mating dance at an outside bar at Sumter Landing one night.

Whalen,
Great video!
I just realized why I have this affinity for flamingos......they love to dance!
Plus their pink!!!

While some may declare Florida "the Sunshine State".....everyone else knows......Florida is really the "Pink Flamingo State" (even those plastic ones)

Annabelle
Long Live the Pink Flamingo!!!

I have to think that the neighbor was misinformed. That little prank with the flamingos (You've been Flocked) went around our neighborhood in Ohio years ago. Also a sign that said "For Sale by Neighbors". Also a sign that said "The wife swapping event has been cancelled due to the lack of a qualified judge".

It's real boring here now. Time to move.

Whalen thank you that was wonderful!

:mademyday:

OMG Whalen I loved the video, nature is never boring and so beautiful.

Always a party pooper at the dance.

Well, Blue Heron Fan, that was quite disgusting. Let's get back to talkin' 'bout plastic flowers . . .
