How much difference can going round a corner make? A lot! You can go round a corner and be taken aback by the wafting aroma of freshly baked bread, by the sound of beautiful music being played by a busker or perhaps by a complete change in scenery of the park you have been walking in for hours:
When do the gardeners work their magic over here I wonder?
When do they steal in and shape the hedges so perfectly?
An arrangement of flowers
Peeping between the hedges, what do I see? There are benches for you and me!
Yellow marigolds. Like the orange ones in Monsoon Wedding
Stunning beauty in one of her simplest forms.
"Should not they walk? Would not Mr. Knightley shew them the gardens - all the gardens? She wished to see the whole extent."

My sister has begun working at the Botanical Gardens in San Francisco and so I can tell you, the gardeners work all week long, just like everyone else. You just don't notice them because they are gnomes. OK, so not gnomes, but because the grounds are extensive, the chances of you running across a gardener at work is slim.
That sounds like Jane Austen, but not one I am familiar with.
