The Pothole Gardener's mini pothole gardens are minuscule, but at the same time, adorable. This guerrilla gardening effort improves the aesthetic of a community while delighting viewers. Guerrilla Gardening started the Pothole Gardener as part of a university project; however, the initiative has kept on growing.
The gardens are created to put smiles on people's faces and to alert them of potholes. Drivers in London don't have to worry about dangerous situations, since the mini pothole gardens are only created on very quiet streets and footpaths and are cleared immediately after the shoot.
Absolutely adorable and impossible to ignore, here's hoping Guerrilla Gardening's Pothole Gardens cross overseas and reach North America soon.
