The South Carolina Festival of Flowers - Part 2

More topiary trees!

Here is Harley the Labrador.
Milkshake the cow.
The mermaid, Lindsay, is one of my favorites. She stands quite tall and impressive.
King Kong is here too.
The lion (Ari) is handsome with the baby (Jibari) off to the side.
Gertie and Gidget.
A family of panda bears.
Barbie-Q the pig.
Ali the alligator is a bit camouflaged.
The frog, Pink Princess, is a fountain.
Baron, the Stately Horse.
The dolphins below are a little camouflaged with the foliage.
A centennial celebration cake.
Of course a display like this would not be complete without a "smile" creation for photo ops.
Being an annual event, I am sure we will come back next year. 

The uptown of Greenwood is was beautifully planned out, filled with businesses, shops and eateries. A great town to visit.

Each piece is sponsored. The topiaries and flowers are maintained by the City of Greenwood, Public Works Department and Horticulture Department.

If you go:
Uptown Greenwood South Carolina
Open daily, free of charge throughout the month of June. 

Thank you for stopping by! ~Val

    Lots of creative people there obviously and if it draws attention to the town and brings in tourists so much the better. I am sure this event is a great boost for local businesses.

      Smart marketing. There is a large inn right there which I am sure entices tourists to spend the night.

    I'm happy to see the second part of this lovely Carolina Festival of Flowers. I see a lot of beautiful works here as well. I think my favourites this time are the mermaid, the frog and the pig, but these are all lovely.
