FUN WITH FOLIAGE






Some examples of clipped trees and bushes that amused me.
The top two were on the streets of Gloucester and although the bushes foliage would normally reach pavement level, someone decided to give them the bonsai treatment and made a pretty good job of it too, giving them the look of oriental trees.
Underneath that pair is a clipped tree that resembles a bell, and this was located in the Elmore area.
The next picture has a really crazy and rather large collection of topiary on display in the back garden of a house in Upleadon. It seems even more amusing when comparing it to the normal vegetable plot in the neighbour's backyard.
The last tree hasn't in fact been clipped but was growing normally in Gloucester, however, to me, it seemed to take on the appearance of Bart Simpson..!!
All shots were taken in the late 90's.
