GUERRILLA GARDENING - Close to Home
By Dyarnell

While lots of articles about guerrilla gardening talk about taking over neglected urban spaces, I often find myself straying from my gardens to the nearby boulevard. This dead tree was really preventing much of anything from growing up to fill the void it left.
Step 1: Remove all of the dead stuff. Well, almost all. The trunk can stay since it was really the branches that made up most of the volume as you can see.
Steps 2: Plant something in the newly created open space. I chose Lupins because they will self seed and choosing something low maintenance is part of a successful guerrilla gardening strategy.
If your hose does not reach your location look for plants that can withstand some dryer conditions; Lupins fit the bill nicely. Short term we have rain forecast all week; only the gardeners are happy.
