It was high time gardeners did some weeding when cannabis was found in council flower pots.

About 20 plants could be seen sprouting from among flowers in six separate boxes in Newport city centre – passed by thousands of motorists every day and half a mile from the city’s main police station.

Shopkeepers Dean Beddis and Steve Reynolds spotted the crooked crops as they walked home after a pint.

Dean, who runs the town’s Kriminal Records, said: “I had never seen cannabis growing in the wild before so it was crazy to see it.

“We thought Newport was trying to be a new Amsterdam and doing its best to win City in Bloom.

“It’s actually rather a beautiful plant and stood out wonderfully.

“But they have gone now. I don’t know who took them.

“Either the council spotted them or some young type has spotted them and put them in his garden.”

Looks like someone took inspiration from those guys in Germany.
 
“It’s actually rather a beautiful plant and stood out wonderfully.

“It made us smile and brightened up dreary old Newport,” the 48 year old said.

Steve, who runs store Toy Army, joked: “If that comes with the seal of Newport council it has got to be good stuff.

“It’s just a shame people have taken them all.”

Oh no, some common sense! Run for your lives!
 
how awesome would it be if someone was able to plant cannabis plants all over the white house yards and area....epic
 
This is horrible news what if some little kid were to smell those flowers; he/she could of gotten addicted or even OD.
 
Yea or if someone touched the sticky flowers they would be burglarizing the entire area, shooting ppl and the like bc they were now drug fiends.
