Theresa's Invisible Rose Garden

Our long-time neighbor, Mike, built his garage close to the property line. Then his wife planted these roses beside it. They, of course, overflow into our yard.

The bed's location is otherwise peculiar. From next door the view's almost entirely obstructed by the garage. The pines in our yard hide the flowers from our view. Our current neighbors find the location a mystery, and have discussed moving the roses. I've encouraged them to do so.

In the meantime, this flower bed's not being maintained.

If anyone lived in The House Behind Our House, they'd have the best view of Theresa's garden. I took this photo from that backyard.

(Footnotes, just for completeness sake: Mike warned us about the garage before he built it; I presume he'd have let us veto the location. The county fined him for the zoning violation. And Theresa asked permission before planting these in our yard.)
