Those elephants, that’s art. I admire the person who had the skill and the patience to create them.

Funny that you should mention topiary as I bought my first one (a beautiful globe of a bay tree on a long slender stem) this week for outside my kitchen door in the new farmhouse… and as I type this my husband is outside, with his shiny new secatuers, cloud-pruning the unruly Catoneaster!! Not something he has ever been inclined to do before!! Perhaps it is our age (approaching 40, ahem!!)

I’ve had dreadful luck with topiaries so far. We had 10 beautifully lining the front of our house and in the first year they were all killed by frosts. Of the second batch, only 50% have survived so far. Something is telling me that my ‘green thumb’ is completely non existent and that perhaps I should wait until I am ‘an old lady’ to buy any more of them. Perhaps then I might be a slightly more wise and experienced gardener!! I’m sure you would have better luck with them than me though!

I love those spiral ones and I’d love to get a couple for the front door.

I love the elephants. Wish I had a yard big enough, and then the talent to make them.

Oh my, I just laughed out loud and could not stop. Those elephants are beyond hilarious! Especially when scrolling down from the notably calm and simple image above… hahaha

I absolutely want those elephants in my yard. Yes, they would look out of place, but they’re fantastic!

Oooh if I had million dollars I would pay someone to fill my yard with those elephants! They are great…

Edward Scissors Hands could do it for me…
