The home of Lanell and Allen Flaugher, located at 252 Telephone Road, is the Seminole Sentinel’s second Yard of the Week for July. The local newspaper is hosting the event this summer, and Susie Wiebe, the owner of Blumenflor, is providing gift cards for the winners. Home to whimsical ironwork- much of it depicting animals- and blooming Mandevilla, Hibiscus, Bougainvillea, and other tropical plants, the front of the Flaugher home is an oasis in West Texas. Lanell, owner and operator of Wigglebutts Kountry Resort, possesses the green thumb while Allen provides the watering for the flowers. The couple has been at their scenic location since the late 1990s and enjoys morning coffee on their porch surrounded by their plants and pooches.
