garden on a golf course
Gardening on a golf course means the garden has to look good from the front and the back because its viewed from both sides.
 
You can sit here and watch golfers loose their balls.

The challenge of a garden design on a golf course is that it is viewed from the front and the back. Traditional layering using taller plants in the back and lower specimens in front wouldn't work for this design. Each section is it's own vignette to be viewed from multiple angles.
