Flower Bomber

Since the sun finally decided to grace us Washingtonians I’ve actually been out of the house to see what’s going on in the world around me. It helps that I’m unemployed too because I really have time to see what’s happening around me. Not, that I want to be unemployed. You hear me?! Hire me! I’m amazing!

Ok, moving on. Everyone’s gardens are blooming all around. It took long enough! Friends on Facebook are posting pictures of their wonderful vegetable gardens and I’m jealous that I don’t own my own home so that I can have one. Then I had to go and find Flower Bomber.  Plant the Power! FlowerBomber’s “Throw ‘n’ Grow” seed balls, aka “seed bombs” for you tough-talkin’ types, turn barren public spaces into urban wildflower oases. It’s the Green Guerrilla gift for everyone! And it’s as simple as, well, this…

Step 1: Find a vacant lot, dirt-covered traffic median, crack in a wall, wherever.
Step 2: Toss a “Throw ‘n’ Grow” (or two or three).
Step 3: Come back after a bit of rain (or with a watering can if you’re the go-getter type) and watch as wildflowers sprout, bloom, blossom and reclaim the city!
