Rejoice! The lawn flamigo has risen phoenix-like

Neither do pink flamingo lawn ornaments . . .

EXCELLENT!

I bought four last year for our Buffett pool party and someone made off with them. Was afraid I'd never be able to get them again.

I have a metal one. Hubby hates it and would throw it out if he thought I wouldn't notice.

Metal!!???
Well, I can see his point.

George--

Thank you for the news. Pink flamingos have an important place in American Lawn Art. They provide visual interest between January when the Christmas Decorations come down and November when the Christmas decorations go up.

Will it still be possible to buy Santa's sleigh pulled by eight nimble flamingos?

Mass Produced Individuality is here to stay.

mrs. sealpoet's related to the original patent-holders. when the sealpoets' were married, they had 150 pink flamingos as deco in their yard - they were given to guests as souvenirs

when a bunch of us visited the sealpoets five years ago, we got to see the last members of the wedding flock

my tomato garden;

Flamingos are something I've never owned. Somehow, they just don't seem all that apropos a few miles from the Continental Divide.

Fabulous I just today bought new flip flops turquoise blue with flamingos on them. I will be visiting friends in Florida next week and I bought them to honor Florida traditions.

I've told this story a few times before on a2k. In my last city of residence, I had been slowly transforming my own back and front yard and fairly extensive sideyard, to fit my design, on a low budget. Let's say the front yard looked miserable for quite a while. Then someone staked a pink flamingo right near the front steps...

I figured it was the sardonic mailman, who kept saying to me, so, "you're a landscape architect, eh?" I saw it, flushed at the insult, and tossed it in the trash.

About a week later, I learned there was some breast cancer awareness crusade, something to do with a radio program, that involved passing a flamingo on and sending in money....

What a disappointment. From the name of this thread, I expected another Dys & Phoenix name-calling contest. Oh well...

pink flamingos clash with blue hair.
