>From a UK English perspective - when you have a group of decorative but
incidental plantings (any combination of plants, bushes, ornamental trees
and grasses), perhaps on a mulch bed, that might be located along the edge
of a car park or perhaps bordering a building - what is the term that is
used to describe such a feature?
