A “punk-rock” gardening revolution is occurring in the U.S., as found in Husqvarna and Gardena’s annual Global Gardening Report 2010.
Amateur gardeners reign supreme on the Internet, and the expert gardeners’ expertise is being challenged throughout the blogosphere. Bloggers are less apt to follow the gardening experts and pave their own way, perhaps a result of a lingering “damn-the-man” mentality due to the economic slide and rise in unemployment in the U.S. Many amateurs are even sharing their foliage failures via blogs to show and educate other gardeners. With social networking continuing to rise, Americans throughout the blogosphere are showing that it takes a village to raise a rosebush.
