A British man dressed as a shrub has vowed to improve his hometown's gardens.
The 'Human Shrub' is protesting over plans for rose beds in Colchester, Essex, to be destroyed.
The un-named 'superhero' hasdecided to take action by weeding the town's 200 plant pots and replacing them with flowers.
The shrub said: "Shrub is back and I am planning more work. We must stop Colchester's politicians spoiling this town and putting future generations of my friends, the bees, at risk."
