Jersey artist Ben Robertson, known as bokraworld, has previously worked with the government to paint a mural on a public toilet, including a display near Corbiere Lighthouse.
He said he “totally agrees” with public art but “it has to go through processes”.
He said: “We’re in a system where you have to have rules and regulations you know or else it could be anything.
“Because it was a flower doesn’t mean it’s acceptable or any different to a tag or a name, this art’s subjective right, or beauty’s subjective, and I don’t think it’s acceptable just because it’s a flower.”
