Guerrilla Gardening

I came across this strange occurrence out of London. Vandals armed with shrubs and flowers are waging war on public places. I’m sure as gardeners and nature lovers we have all walked by a barren patch of land along a sidewalk or park and thought, “That would look so much better if something was planted there.” Well one man got tired of calling the city and complaining about it, and decided to do something. He enlisted the help of several people, and they started attacking the ugly parts of town. They usually do all the planting at night, since technically what they are doing is illegal. However, no one ever complains! This new crime wave has since spread out from London to other parts of Europe. Be sure to check out the Guerrilla Gardening homepage and this video about how it all gets done!
