A Beacon Hill resident with the nom de blog “bloggersucks” has started a blog, BeHi Bonsai, on a rather unusual topic — the sleekly — and sometimes oddly — sculpted hedges and trees found in the yards of some local homes.

“The Beacon Hill neighborhood of Seattle has some funky bushes. I’m not sure exactly where the aesthetic comes from, there is an obvious Asian aesthetic but I think that it goes much further than that and seems to have a funky Seattle twist. This blog is dedicated to exploring the excessive and amazing topiary designs of this area.”
