The I.F.O. or Identifiable Flowering Object is a flowering planter that can be placed almost any where in a yard or garden, where it can be seen and appreciated by anyone and as a plus it can be readily moved as the owner see's fit. It is around 30 inches off the ground so it is at a good height to view for anyone that has difficulty bending over to smell the flowers.
