By Eva Weaver<\/p>\n

Anyone who’s been to the Aldi Store in Queensbury, or who frequents the Warren County Bikeway, has probably witnessed the floral artwork of Freddie Senser-Lee, founder of Botanicals Blossoming on the Bikeways. Freddie, and his daughter, Breanna Ayer-Senser, began planting flowers along Warren County Bikeway’s Gerald B. Solomon Bridge over Quaker Road, in Queensbury last spring.
\nFreddie, an artist whose murals have traveled around the world, has a vision to take his blossomings around the United States – from Warren County to Saratoga County and continuing right on down to New York City and eventually the entire United States.<\/p>\n

In presenting his ideas to the Warren County Board of Supervisors, Freddie said, “I brought with me a guest: ‘betty begonia’, a huge red plant, and introduced her, holding her up and turning for all too see. This left an impression.”<\/p>\n

Several local florists and residents have donated to Freddie’s cause. “I’ve never met anyone who hates flowers,” says Freddie. Binley’s Nursery in Queensbury, awarded for being the best small nursery\/gardening business in the region, has donated time and plantings to Freddie’s project. Freddie’s dear friend retired Lt. Col. John “Jack” Smith, U.S. Air Force, World War 2 and Vietnam Veteran , also donates his time, helping to transport plantings and pruning.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the suggestion from Tim Benway, Warren County’s Parks, Recreation and Railroads Manager and the inspiration of Kate Johnson, Warren County’s Director of Tourism, Freddie is a new non-profit member of Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce.<\/p>\n

Freddie describes his project as “a community unity opportunity project”. To make a donation or to volunteer, contact Freddie Senser-Lee at 538-0046.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
