The cemetery topiary (no. 13) should have been No 1. All that fabulous work done by one man, who was not trained in this area, is incredible. Most of the top gardens are maintained by professional gardeners which is not as amazing, they are just doing their work. His achievement is more incredible because he does it for the pleasure of the people coming to the cemetery, not because he is paid to do it.
He is trained. He is a natural and had tons of practice and specimens to practice on. Along with tools, time, and talent. The trifecta. Anyone can do it with those three and of course the specimens as I said.
I was hoping LaDew would be featured, and thrilled it is! Before moving to Seattle, I lived in Baltimore County, Maryland and frequently visited LaDew Gardens, usually followed by a great meal at the Manor Tavern. How great to see this old treasure from my life on the east coast :)
very usefull for people live and work around the house with hedges and shape of animals trimming so cute and thanks god creative for us to stay on earth
OMG, and a second great memory and treasure from my time on the East Coast, Longwood Gardens! that trip usually included lunch at the Chad's Ford Inn and a visit to see the Wyeth paintings, NC Wyeth, Jamie Wyeth, and most near to my heart, Andrew Wyeth, at the Brandywine River Museum, and one visit included a trip to the other notable Dupont Estate in the Area, Winterthur. The Holiday displays and the spring displays at Longwood are most notable!
These gardens are indeed beautiful. However nothing compares to the gardens found around the world formed by the great Creator. The cascading forests along the west coast, Ireland, Portugal. The dense tropical forests of Costa Rica, New Zealand and many countries in Africa. India's forests are incredible, wild fig tree grow over structures and rock, roots exposed. Along China's southern coast where mountains meet the ocean. Then there's gardens of rock like the majestic Grand Canyon, or seeing but just sand for miles around you in West Africa's Sahara regions. Japan has some of the most beautiful koi ponds in the world.
With a little time and patience we can make a beautiful Topiary Garden at home. Everyone is welcome to the channel to see the Topiary arts we have prepared in front of the house🙂
