Hedging and Topiary are all the rage here in Sydney, especially in the wealthier Suburbs and with the Property market Steeming hot, excuse the pun. Here we see a Cypress hedge above the wall, and Lilly Pilly ( Syzigium ) topiaries use to soften a rendered wall near the entrance to a house. They do add " class" to the Property, but at the same time, are high maintenance. They can be decorated like Christmas trees too. What a rush !
