Gardening as Protest: Activists Planted Tulips in Potholes in the Ukraine

Tulips in Potholes

Reports from around the internet say that activists in the Ukraine launched a unique protest on the terrible condition of roads. Unknown protesters planted tulips and other flowers in potholes along major streets.

I haven’t been able to track down the original source for this report. I note that our roads are pretty terrible too after our long, hard winter. Could a protest of this type bring attention to our potholes?

Sure, it’s a shoop, but what’s the most unpredictable place you can think of to squeeze a little more gardening into your life?
