The whole thing is depressing. The wife died a few years ago. She had extensive, spectacular gardens. The husband and son don't garden. One year some neighbors went over and cleaned up and mulched the front. But it went back to jungle. Last year I went over with another neighbor and we removed many plants through out the summer. There are still spectacular shrubs over there and lots of plants. But ivy, grapevines, wild raspberries, leaves, and general debris have taken over. It is really depressing.
