Not the kind where the home-owner or yard care crew decide to cut everything into cubes and lollipops because it's easy, but the kind where a little artistic talent is needed, think Pearl Fryar. Now I know this one verges on the dreaded "mushrooming" of a Japanese maple but ya gotta respect the precision of those lines...
