Landscaping Experiments I

I attempt interesting landscape design projects in my garden which I call "experiments". Not meant to offend, these are an outgrowth of my teen years spent as a groundskeeper on an estate on the east coast. Though only about 4 acres in size it included a rose garden, animal shaped topiaries, long hedges, arbors, etc. About ten years ago I planted a Forsythia on either side of the sidewalk out front. My "experiment" was to grow and shape them into a single archway for pedestrians. Over time it began to come along fairly nicely. One day, on arriving home, I noticed a ticket shaped paper attached to our screen door. We often have errant painters and such leaving trash attached to our house, so I almost discarded it. Lo and behold!  It was a threat, caused by some ninny who complained, from the city's "Community Standards" folks. Remove this "Danger" or face $75 a day fines!
