Okay, I admit, I just wanted to use that title!
With the garden comes its boundaries, and it this case, some massive conifers out back and a beech hedge out front. This is the Cotoneaster Franchetii (I think!) hedge under the front window.
The previous owners were kind enough to leave us a set of electric hedge trimmers, and I'm now beginning to understand why... I swear if you watch the cotoneaster long enough you'll see it grow, its that quick. The big beech hedge is slower, but trimming it with electric trimmers at the top of a step ladder is NOT my idea of fun! And as for the conifers, I think we'll be paying for someone to sort them out for us...
[About the photo - another close up macro shot with my trusty 105mm Sigma lens. Shooting wide open (f/3.3 at this close range) to throw the beech hedge in the background completely out of focus.]
