Down the end of the front garden, near the red robins, there is a golden cane palm, a fox-tail palm, and the red abutilon which are very close together.
I considered momentarily removing the golden cane, but have decided, for the moment, that it can stay.
I am after a thick barrier near the road, to block both sound and vision on my side, from the traffic. The golden cane will have to be kept in check, but I think a shady section down there will be nice, especially if the gazebo is positioned there, eventually.
17 Jan 2021 - I noticed this morning how big the trees were becoming, and how nice it will be, when they are huge and providing shade. The house is completely secluded with the one level - just how I like that!
