To me, "guerilla gardening" conjures up visions of striking at the weak
points and fading back into the urban jungle; not some sort of direct
confrontation.
I hate to plant things that can't have the time to grow.
How can you best use your energies to build a poplar movement, branching out
from deep roots?
I have heard stories of brave "guerilla gardeners" dressing in coveralls and
hard hat, planting street trees in broad daylight; groups stealthily setting
out massive flower beds at night, to rally neighborhoods and create (veggie)
gardens to block road construction.
I leaf it to yer imagination...
But I would love to see a picture of Winnie with a turf Mohawk!
