I live in Sikago and my lot is 25feet by 125 feet. That includes everything. Once you take out space for the house, garage, sidewalk and patio the remaining is filled with all kinds of oxygen producing plants. I grow cherry tomatoes and habanero peppers. My vine arbor is 12 by twenty feet. Whn my neighbors are crowding under their umbrella to beat the summer heat I enjoy the shade that my grapevine gives me.
