This link was sent to me by Jeremy Mah of the Phillip & Gladstone Street Pride Group with the words, “WOW…imagine this in our Inner West streets!”
The website shows photos of verge gardens & street beautification done by the residents of Lincoln Road Lefferts Gardens, which won the title of ‘Greenest Block’ in Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s annual contest, kind of like Marrickville Council’s Spring Garden competition, which is taking entries now – http://bit.ly/ODDMPN
Lincoln Road is stunning & it wouldn’t be hard to see how living amongst such beauty would have an impact on improving their quality of life. Surely we could do something like this here in Marrickville LGA. You can see the photos from Gardenista here. Be prepared for a pleasant shock. – http://bit.ly/Sfczkg

These photos ooze community pride. Interesting that the people here share their mature plants to continue the gardening further on in the street. Absolutely wonderful.
