The Gardens

Cul de Sac

This is not my garden, it's the cul de sac at the end of our road, planted and maintained by our homeowner's association.  But since our house sits at the top of this circle, it is what I see out my front door and every time I drive down the driveway.

Here is how it started, when construction was new and nine houses were just going in on our short street. Looking from our own driveway down the street, before the cul de sac had any plantings at all.
