Pot in a pot?

What appeared to be marijuana plants were recently found growing out of one of the many city-owned hanging flower baskets in the the Millville, N.J., Glasstown Arts District, according to a report on pressofAtlanticCity.com.
The two plants, their leafy stalks sticking out above a patch of small pink flowers and black-and-white checkered flags, were spotted first by a passer-by.
According to onlookers at the scene, at least three uniformed officers propped up a ladder next to the lamp post and retrieved the basket early in the afternoon. The two plants were plucked from the bucket and taken to the police station, but not before a few photographs were snapped.
While police Capt. Tom Romanishin declined comment, saying the report had not reached him yet, the plants are easily identified by photos taken at the scene. The seasonal baskets, hanging from every lamp post on the street, look similar, aside from different colors of flowers. This particular one, located in front of a downtown eatery, was the only one featuring what appeared to be marijuana.
A police officer on the scene said marijuana seeds may have been thrown out of an apartment window above the street.
 
The basket that held the plants was located -- we're not kidding -- on High Street, just outside of a restaurant.
