Modern Miss Jekyll

Gertrude Jekyll and Margery Fish were known to surreptitiously drop their fav seeds in garden that “needed” them. This is the hyper version of that!

clipped from gardenposse.blogspot.com

We made two batches of seed bombs. Eventually people started getting fancy and trying out different shapes. Someone suggested heart-shaped seed balls would make a great Valentine’s gift. Seriously, they would. It made all the girls go “awww.”

We plan to throw them into overgrown lots, and tuck them into the margins of curbs and grass. They’d also be great to throw into your own lawn or garden. The possibilities are endless.

i thought immediately of how cool
and thoughtful “terrorists” that seed-throwing gardeners really are
think i will take out all my frozen flower packs outdated and drop pinches everywhere i see bare dirt.
