My neighborhood is filled with tree squares such as this one. Small postage stamp gardens, expressions of nature, beauty and ...open for parking? The Dietes (African Iris) is planted behind this vinyl latice but the size of the latice will block the sun probly more than the dog piss.
The Dietes is a fine choice for these plantings but this bent piece of latice with those puny plants spells trouble ahead for these horticultural workhorses. Im curious why the street side of the tree square was left open, perhaps there is a vehicle parked there or perhaps the gardener presumes that no dog would sniff its way around the bend to enter the enclosed space using the street entrance. Or is this a garage, a carport, turn-around for chihuahuas?
I'm strangely attracted to its smooth texture and perfect curves. It reminds me of those plastic baskets that french fries come in. Perhaps they should go all the way with this and put in freezer grass...those little hedges you see in the meat section of the super market.
ReplyDeleteLol! I always laugh when I see things like this. Considering these spots of ground anything more than an opportunity for grass to grow and dogs to pee is foolish in my mind, but you have to at least give whomever did this some credit for trying.
