sunflowers and toilets!

12 years ago

What's the deal in upstate NY with sunflowers and toilets? I was there the last few days and saw several yards filled with toilets and behind the toilets were groups of tall sunflowers. Wish I had had my camera!! Too funny.

Hmmm...I haven't seen anything like that in my area...I'm glad about that! I'm not a big fan of toilets in the garden anyway.

That is so funny. It must be that one person started it and others who liked it did it too. Or maybe its a family thing.
I wish you had gotten pics.

My sunflowers require a lot of water....maybe it's a slow-drip irrigation thing??

Very funny! I was in Home Depot today & saw 3 toilets sitting around the store! It will be interesting to see how long they are sitting there because for sure some idiot will try to use 1 of the 2 that are just about 4 in. off floor level! if nothing else a kid will end up sitting on 1 of them & going!!Sunflowers & toilets, interesting combination, maybe the tanks help hold them up??
