Liberated Gardener Crowds Plants Into Tiny Strip Garden
In a narrow fifty foot strip along a parking area, Frank J. Taylor details a five year hobby called hodgepodge growing. He replaced bulbs with a dense mix of daffodils, tulips, dahlias, chrysanthemums, lilies, irises, coral bells and geraniums, then fed with 8-8-8 pellets and leaves. The result is a thriving floral jungle from spring to autumn with minimal upkeep.
