In the name of being 'uniform'--in other words boring--we have been stripped of all beauty on our grounds by the new owners!! All the resident's gardens are gone as are the fruit trees and 3 story white Birds of Paradise plants.

IT is all money!! It costs less to mow a lawn than to trim trees, take care of flowers, etc., though they just say they want everything 'uniform'!

And residents had their own gardens, took care of them and had contests who had the prettiest ones, etc.
