Thank you for the daffodils around the street trees!

They have been a cheerful and welcome greeting to the warmer months of the year.  I  presume the Council knows not to spray any nasty chemicals there.  I do remember one of the Councillors some time ago saying to let him know.I've dead headed them and perhaps should have given them some tomato feed or something but how does that work when something may have been guerilla gardened?I know I'm not the only one who has noticed.  If mental messaging existed already you would have received this thank you a long time ago!

I understand that over the river in Southfields there are flowers planted around the street trees by residents.  When I get a chance I'll have a look.Anywhere else?

Agreed! I think we need to ensure that everyone has more of an idea about growing things and nature.  It can take many years for a tree to grow tall enough for you to stand under it yet in just a few minutes it can be destroyed.  What happened to the nature tables in schools?

Yes, guerilla gardening...I think it's great. Hopefully, the tree waterers leave them alone for them to thrive on our kerbs.Long live Guerilla Gardening!
