Topiaries

I really want a cool topiary, currently I have two eugenia topiaries which are basic ball shapes. Mine are much smaller than the photo, and are currently dying/dead because of the winter and my lack of care. Better yet I could visit a topiary garden and let the gardeners deal with the constant pruning.

The word topiary derives from the Latin word for an ornamental landscape gardener, topiarius, meaning the creator of "topia" or places.
