Have you heard of guerrilla gardening, where folks toss flower seeds into vacant lots, or sometimes sneak in at night and plant flowers in unkempt highway medians or strips along city sidewalks? One of their tools is seed bombs — little clumps of dried mud laced with seeds that can easily be tossed over fences into vacant lots. Top choices for best seeds to sow are tough, native species, which you might think would be hard to come by. Think again — one of the showiest and toughest native plants is actually also one of the cheapest and most widely available — the sunflower seeds, sold for birdfeeders, in pretty much every supermarket and hardware store across the country.
My dad does this. Well, he tried. He didn’t have much luck. I wonder if anyone has done this and can give some experience. What should the ball be made of? Are there any good food producing plants that you can use? Any perennials? Let me know what you think. Certainly let us know if you have any tips!
