The shrubs are essentially a form of topiary, fashioned into great sofas which envelope and accommodate the cars that doze in the bays. This swathe of snipped green upholstery has a rounded almost Rubenesque form and also seems to form part of a heart shape, out which springs the tree, which also seems to pierce it. We all pass it without a thought letting its smooth curved edges escort us blindly to the exit.
