A new breed of blossoms sprouted this spring in York, PA cultivated from gears, sprockets, railroad spikes and other recycled metal items. So far, seven 10-foot-tall flowers, four 6-foot-tall flowers and a toadstool have burgeoned out of 12 sprockets or gears. Other metal parts used include a rock drill bit and electric motor housing as the toadstool's stem and cap, respectively. Railroad spikes were used to decorate the flowers, and other items were taken from a closed pottery plant including plate molds, propeller-shaped clay mixers and gears from the drying ovens, according to city council member Genevieve Ray. "Flowers are made to order, with each flower sponsored by a donor. Sponsors' contributions cover design, fabrication, installation, lighting and long-term maintenance."
