Bushes in the Frankael Garden

A dense growth of ornamental shrubs bordering the garden path, their dark green leaves partially obscuring Stuart and Frazer as they move between planted rows. The bushes sway and rustle audibly as the two men push through, the sound masking any further noise they make. Their thorny stems catch at Frazer’s sleeve briefly, forcing him to adjust his course. The foliage offers fleeting concealment but reveals their passage through displaced petals and disturbed branches.
