Annuals planted in cargo bed of old pickup truck
Every year for the past three (and probably many more), this rusty, old pickup truck's cargo bed has been a planter filled with annuals.
Longer view
The road is higher up than the driveway so the truck is easily seen from the road when we drive southerly to Whitby. I think the flags are celebrating the Pan American Games and the Parapan American Games held this year in Toronto as the baseball games were played just down the highway a bit.

Such a functional old buddy. That's cool! His service would be mostly appreciated when people see how beautifully the field is done.
Good morning, I love the old red truck and the pretty flowers. It is a cheery sight to see from the road! Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!

Sure beats having to unload them. :-)
Makes a fabulous display EG, sunshine colours :)
Love it!
the truck by itself is a treasure and the flowers make it even better. great idea
What a great idea. I love the truck, and the flowers are beautiful.
At glance I though the truck was transporting flower plants! Nice use with the cargo bed of the abandoned truck. Stunning in red
The truck sets those flowers off perfectly! What a fun idea.
=)
I like that idea and it makes for a striking photograph.
That's nice.
It dresses up the old truck beautifully!
Quite a handy truck to drive!
I'd like to have a few of those plants! Been out of the loop for days without cell or wifi in our lovely Lake Michigan cottage in Door County, Wi. Wish I could live here again!
Right now briefly visiting a coffee shop to use cell and pick up messages. Will visit again soon! Still posting automatically, tho!
That's a great way to showcase the flowers!
A good idea and a nice subject for some photos!
I have seen a lot of goods transported over the years that have been less than healthy so to see these flower beds being trucked about is definitely a refreshing change!
Ha. A good use for a once fine truck.
Wonderful idea!
Such a fun idea!
This duo wors very well.
Como ficou bonito este caminhão cheio de flores, adorei.
Abraços.

what a find, gorgeous!!!!
Oo - that is so pretty!
That's different and beautiful and so colorful!! I love it! What a great use of an old truck!! Hope your week is off to a great start!!
Guess they really wanted a flower 'bed', hmmmm?
This is just so cool! A wonderful idea...glad you have shown it to us.
Great photo. The truck and the flowers are a great combination.
That puts the old truck to good use doesn't it? Far better to make a lovely wayside attraction like that than have it rusting away with no one caring about it.
That red truck has something endearing!
I thought they were tomatoes!
Pretty!
Great Red Truck with all the beautiful flowers!
What an unusual planter! But I like it.
Flowers in a dump truck--that's an image you don't see every day! Whoever thought to do this was brilliant. Love!!!
Upcycling at its best.
This is one of the most interesting planters I've yet seen...and it looks like there's minimal weeding once the flowers are going. Bravo!
What a unique photo ~ love the red truck for a very large planter for florals!
Great shot for OWT !
Happy week to you,
artmusedog and carol
That is cool isn't it! xx
What a brilliant idea. I wonder if they plant other kinds too after the blooms die out.
Worth a Thousand Words
such a cool idea. Love the colorful load :)
Your photos are the feast, and the noise of that truck is the music (to my ears)!
Bravo, Tina!!
Have a Happy Week!
Peace :)
Goodness that is a truck load! Lovely.
This is so much fun! I love it.
That is a great way to make use of an old vehicle.
It's so pretty. The gardener must have spent a lot of time.
Good to see they found some use for the old truck! I'd imagine the flower gardens are probably some of the prettiests loads the truck has ever carried.
How lovely - in a old truck there are so much flowers. Very pretty.
Great way to display them all!
I love to see a good repurposing.
That is a great idea. :)
That's a nice flower vase and even mobile. Thanks for showing.
What a great use for an old truck. Fabulous find.
It is colorful. Pretty cool.
