The Sculpted Art Garden

There are some talented and artistically minded gardeners who seem to have a magical ability to bring whimsy and enchantment to the grounds surrounding some of the world’s most elegant adt homes. This is a true art form, and one that practiced less and less by only a few masters who, hopefully, will pass on their skills and knowledge to new generations who can carry on the tradition. You may remember seeing sculptured hedges in children’s book illustrations or in movies, or perhaps even in movies and other popular media and wondered how they manage to create such beauty from the chaos that is shrubbery.  Well, wonder no longer.

Here is a video that walks you through a highly imaginative sculptured landscape created by one of the few remaining hedge artists. Imagine the loveliness that could be in the world if everyone with a yard were to go to such lengths to produce organic art of this caliber. Imagine everyone growing up with a maze made of living shrubberies, or dragon bushes, or even fantasy creatures who appear to keep a watchful eye over the yard. What a striking world that would be.
