Moseley is looking brighter than ever. Our new permanent floral planters have now appeared across the village — carefully placed to add colour, character and a touch of charm to key areas, including spots where inconsiderate parking has caused problems in the past. They’re already transforming the streetscape, but with the recent hot weather, these displays need a little extra care to stay healthy. Because of the heatwave, our Moseley floral displays watering effort has become urgent and we need a helping hand.

This is where our brilliant community comes in.

🌱 Why Moseley floral displays watering matters

During warm spells, the floral displays, tree bases and planted beds around Moseley dry out quickly. Even a small amount of water helps protect the plants, keeps roots cool, and ensures the village continues to look welcoming for residents, visitors and local businesses.

A few minutes of watering genuinely makes a difference — and together, we can keep Moseley blooming all summer long.

🏪 Local businesses: Can you lend a hand?

Our high street thrives because of you, and your support keeps Moseley’s green spaces thriving too. We’re inviting businesses to join our community gardening effort by:

• Hosting a watering butt for public use
• Helping water nearby planters, floral displays and tree bases
• Encouraging staff to give planters a quick drink during quieter moments

Your involvement shows pride in Moseley and helps create a greener, more vibrant village centre.

🏘️ Local residents: Your small actions have a big impact

If you live in Moseley or pass through regularly, you can help keep our community gardening efforts strong:

• Give nearby planters or tree bases a quick drink when you walk past
• Carry a small jug, bottle or watering can on hot days
• Encourage neighbours to join in — even one watering a week helps

These tiny acts of care add up fast, especially during heatwaves.

💛 Community shout‑outs

A huge thank you to Tehran Restaurant, who are already leading the way with fantastic community spirit and regular watering support.

We’re also grateful to Cofton Nurseries for planting up the new planters so beautifully, and to Moseley CDT / Moseley Hive for securing the funding that made this project possible.

This is community gardening at its best — local people, local businesses and local pride working together.
