Front Door: Well Placed Pots

Well placed pots, below.  Aaaah, the front door, and landing, have space to breath.
.
And a well fought battle, for simplicity.
.
There's more, below.  Did you see it immediately too?  Ok, huge hint.  Goes under the heading of Cultural Anthropology.
.
No?  Another hint?  Subhead, under Cultural Anthropology, Socioeconomics.  Got it now?
.
Garden Design, below, blares its socioeconomics & cultural anthropology of this fine tuned realm within Garden Design layers.
.
What does this Garden Design and maintenance tell you about the socioeconomics & cultural anthropology for this tribe of people, living in the home, below?

Pic, above, here.

Beautiful display, above, of the socioeconomics & cultural anthropology of hedge pruning.  Here, above, the 'hedge' is Vertical Lawn, and a vine.  Am using 'hedge' flagrantly.
.
Men, with ladders required, above.  Perhaps there's more to this home, higher hedge covered walls at the back elevation, and a cherry picker is required for pruning.
.
In most gardens the socioeconomics & cultural anthropology of Garden Design pruning is pruning at chest height.  No ladder, no hired labor, do-it-yourself.
.
Yes, an exquisite delight seeing the pruning, above.  For its rarity.

A friend moved from suburbia Atlanta to rural Georgia 2 decades ago, into an antebellum home.  At the time, thought she was crazy.  She said something memorable about the antebellum home purchase, "It comes with a cherry picker."  Recently, they've sold that home, cherry picker included !

Love that front door!

Needless to say, I adore the vertical lawn! I have ample vertical lawn on my house! And zero horizontal lawn!

But; because it is deciduous; it doesn't need pruning!! No cherry-picker needed!

Beautiful house, hedges and pots!

I have often remarked that WE need a cherry-picker. What a wonderful item to convey with a property!!
