Oh my goodness that’s hilarious! I walked up this road just the other day and saw this hedge for the first time too. For a second I actually considered crossing the road because on approach I had a strange feeling that it might suck me up and fly me off into space….

I’ve only ever seen these in the Ukraine and some northern parts of Georgia where the privet is taking on a real cachet among the nouveau riche – representing the Edwardian England that they aspire to, rather crassly mixed with some primitive abstract expressionism.

It’s called a “nosery hedge”…they are quite popular in Mexico and most South American village’s. They are also called “protruding hedges” because they stick out like from the other hedge’s. They are a sign of great fertility and fast cars or in the South American village’s fast boars who let children ride them….

I am surprised that you did not know this Rupert…..

We have a ton of those kind of things here, too. Mostly, though, they are shaped like birds.

So when they park their car in front of their place and it’s raining, they have a natural umbrella?
