Boulevard Garden

A lot of the older areas of toronto have small boulevards between the sidewalk and the road, but in this part of the Yorkville neighbourhood they often are planted with flowers instead of just grass. The garden behind the fence even has roses growing while the neighbour across the street has gone for impatiens. I love the old fence around the closer one!

The fence is the perfect height to show off the plants.

Oh, how pretty. Reminds me an area on the outskirts of Paris.

Appears to be a low fence, which nicely complements the plants.

That's attractive fencing and keeps people from walking into the flowerbeds.
