Garden Walk gardener quoted in Wall Street Journal on "hellstrips"

Great Garden Walk Buffalo gardener Ellie, in Buffalo's Cottage District, was quoted in the Wall Street Journal last week in an article about hellstrips, the area between road and sidewalk.



From the article:

Ellie Dorritie, a retired postal worker in Buffalo, NY, says the full sun exposure in her planting strip allows her to garden with different plants than what she can get away with in her much shadier yard. Her garden scheme? "Cram it in," she says. "I ask, 'Does it bloom? Will it fight for space?' If the answer is yes, it goes in."
