We really need to retrain our eyes to see the beauty in nature... Sadly, the way so many people have been taught to see things is that one inch tall greenery is 'desirable' and taller stuff is somehow seen as 'unkempt' and likely to attract vermin...
I don't know how to beautify a brush pile... seeing the birds land on the twigs has a magic all it's own...
How can you improve on this?
