Without fail, visitors to the great gardens of the world are
enchanted by their topiary art. These great, green sculptures,
often in the form of animals, but sometimes in geometric or
abstract shapes, are formed by carefully binding and trimming a
living plant. The patience and skill required may seem intimidating
to those who wish to try their hands at it, but in this book the
art is made accessible to every gardener. Well illustrated, with
easy-to-understand instructions, three topiary projects are
offered, a peacock (with instructions for its transformation into
an angel), a Gothic arch, and a duck. The projects shown use small,
potted plants from the nursery, but the techniques are readily
adapted to shrubs and bushes in the garden.The tools and materials
needed for topiary are common, owned by almost every gardener; with
this basic guide, all that is needed is a little creativity and
time. The results will astound.
