I like the theme for this month's competition........ the pictures coming in are making me smile
My car is often loaded with plants for shows and displays, but David V S's pic goes one step (in fact, several steps!) further.

Interested in cacti (particularly Echinopsis, Rebutia, Sulcorebutia, Lobivia, Gymnos and Chamaelobivia), Stapeliads, Sempervivums, and anything else that takes my fancy.

Looks very unusual! A chopped up imported small Ford 100E from the look of it?David V S wrote:Plants in an unusual container.
Spotted in Willowmore, S.Africa.
I had the van version of one of these, top speed about 45mph - suited slow growing cacti! If only I'd taken a pic of some plants in the back...

Looks like the filling station went bust and the plants took over.
