Simon's Blog - Hedging Your Bets

What's not to love about a hedge that's grown into the shape of a hungry terrapin devouring a wall!

Of course Eric's garden art is all natural but some cleverly trimmed bushes have been turning up in my meridianweather@itv.com inbox too.

Maurice Kirkham in Ashford calls this his pom pom.

He also sent in this photo of a bay tree that’s got a plaited trunk.

And who wouldn’t feel happy if they came across this cheerful hedge in Joan Bourner’s garden in Bognor Regis.

Finally, here's a bit of ex-garden from Mel Smith in Haddenham that looks like a comedy moustache.

Lovely as it looks, I'm thinking he’s trying to impress the wrong girl!
