RIP Sunflowers of ROW Garden

I didn't get a chance to write this up last week because I got caught up in neighborhood stuff and Gnomedex. But I still want to take a short moment of silence to mourn the loss of most of the sunflower population at the Harvard Ave Collective/ ROW Garden. Sometime between last Sunday and last Tuesday, somebody (probably a drunken idiot somebody), callously beat most of the ROW sunflowers to death. Out of the original population, there are only three scarred survivors. I take comfort in the fact that they did their duty - our sunflowers bravely stood as bait to drunken idiots and protected their vegetable comrades to the end.
