Guerrilla gardening mischief

June 9, 2008 by Andrea Bellamy 7 Comments

before and after guerilla gardening.jpgThis rocks. Sandy, a guerrilla gardener in Portland, Oregon, decided to modify her local Mercedes dealership’s “landscaping.” Possibly the best use of a strategically placed boxwood hedge ever. Love it!

    Cheeky. Creative. Much improved symbol. Makes me want to join the local guerrilla gardener movement.

    Fern – You seem to be assuming that all vandalism is bad! I don’t see any problem with this whatsoever. Nothing’s been removed, or damaged. Just creatively altered.

    Cool – I wonder if the car selling guys have even noticed this yet? They probably never look at any plantings…
