Downtown Selma is filled with red and green both with real flowers (foreground) and artificial Christmas wreaths with red bows. It's a festive sight, even on a cloudy day!
It's obviously still relatively warm in Selma then>
Thanks for your pictures throughout the year, and for your contribution to the City Daily Photo network.Have a joyous Christmas and a Happy New Year, from South Shields Daily Photo
The red flowers certainly makes for a very pretty street scene and complement the wreaths nicely.
I wonder of planting flowers like this can be attributed to Mrs. Johnson and her highway Beautification campaign in the 60's? I know there were plantings before then, but I don't recall as much of it before Ladybird.
Thanks for all your comments. Clueless, I really hadn't thought about Ladybird Johnson getting the downtown beautification started. I do remember that downtown used to have some sticky evergreen bushes before they got these more colorful flowers.

nice photo -- I like the music, too. :)
oh, wonderful pic. This is great color and you have done a great job framing this scene.
Red bows complement the flowers really well.
The roses are spectacular - perfect timing and the music is a nice compliment to your photo.
