Flowers Around Town: North Conway, New Hampshire Part 1

Late in September, my family went camping in New Hampshire's White Mountains. One drizzly day, we spent exploring the shops of North Conway. I'm always interested in the flower displays shop owners plant to dress up their stores, so I snapped some photos for our readers to enjoy. I found a mix of summer flowers still looking happy and Autumn displays.

I thought these pink petunias were very well complimented by the pink and white mums, white pumpkins and other fall additions.

This was the most impressive sidewalk garden I think I've ever seen. If you look closely there is a path through it. I'll post some close-up photos of this garden in another post.

The autumn displays at Zeb's go so well with the color scheme of the building. If ever you find yourself in North Conway, this is a must see shop. It's like stepping back in time to another era. Well worth the time to stop and browse.

This old fashioned 5 and 10 Store had a beautiful display of petunias still in their full glory.
I just love these pink striped petunias. So cute!

I'll be posting more photos in an upcoming post, as well as more from Strawbery Banke Museum. Stay tuned!

What to do when it is just too Darn hot to Garden?
