The Parks in Downtown Peterborough reveal their structure a few weeks before Christmas. Yew, bowwood and ornamental grasses are the main elements. Each year, the Community Garden Project adds greens to the flower boxes on the two bridges in town and the holiday season can begin.
I like those wave hedges. How long have they been growing?
ReplyDeleteJames,
ReplyDeleteGordon Hayward did the initial design (when the park was installed) with Hick's yews about a dozen years ago. I decided to make it have waves about 7 years ago. I think it took about 3 years for the waves to appear. The first year, it looked awful! Thanks for the comment.
