   Love it! This is quite old, they must have taken care of these for decades.

   This hedge is awesome and I think I've seen it before. I stayed at a friend's family beach house out that way when I was 18. This hedge looks identical to one I took note of, when I wasn't even in to gardening. If its the same hedge, it must be really old, because I am 40 now. I also drove by the same pumpkin people photo of the day, a day or two ago, when I was traveling south from the town green of our un-named northwest, CT town.
   Small world! We must be neighbors and have a similar eye for gardens. I will have to post some photos of my local garden. Thank you for all the great photos.

   Beautiful and impressive! A certain well-known nursery in north-west CT had a similar very large mixed hedge, took it down, and restarted another which is now five or six years old and worth checking out.

   cwheat000, are we living parallel lives?? We MUST live in the same town! ("town green" tipped me off--I live 3 blocks from it.) Would love to see pics of your garden.

   I wish more people opt for something like this, rather than a uniform row of boring arborvitae.

   In England they call a mixed hedge a Tapestry Hedge. How fitting.

   regarding your brother's hydrangea.......it wouldn't crowd the steps if he just pruned it back on the step side!
