Metro vows to dig up daffodils, as guerrilla gardener plows on Washington Defying both a never-ending winter and the wishes of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, a crop of yellow daffodils gently swayed in the wind at the north exit of the Dupont Circle Metro station Monday afternoon. The blossoms are back. But is the guerrilla gardener? Henry Docter, who describes himself as the Phantom Planter, was the cause of a not-inconsider-
able public outcry last summer after Metro threatened him with arrest if he tended to the flowers that he surreptitiously planted at the Dupont Circle station’s north exit. Though WMATA backed down on the legal threats, the agency said it wouldn’t allow Docter to continue gardening, citing safety concerns. A few weeks later, Metro yanked the flowers, saying it would repair the paver blocks and plant “a lowmaintenance ground cover.” A discerning rider noticed the new blooms and alerted the blog Popville.com, which first reported on them Monday, to ask if the “rogue gardener” is back or if WMATA is responsible for the bit of brightness.

Phantom Plantings Bloom Anew
If the relentless cold doesn’t kill the Dupont flowers, WMATA will in “coming weeks.”
“We haven’t planted anything yet,” Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said. “We are planning on replacing everything in the coming weeks with a low ground cover, as we’ve
said consistently.” Stessel speculated that they may have been bulbs that weren’t removed last year. By email Monday, Docter said: “Of course I planted them,” and
that he did so in 2012. Once the sun warms up, he said, more daffodils and tulips should come up since Metro didn’t manage to uproot all of his work — at least not yet. Still, Phantom Planter fans shouldn’t despair; they can find his work around the city. “There are quite a few other Phantom Flower Plantings coming up all over town,” Docter wrote. He has also promised a second surprise as a follow-up to his unauthorized October art installation at the Dupont station, where he hung a sculpture with commentary about flower removal. “When this piece of performance art is unveiled it’ll be worth the wait,” he wrote Monday. “I still believe Metro will unconditionally surrender due to Surprise #2.” R ACHEL SADON (E XPRESS)
