I scroll past MANY irrelevant posts every day here but rarely yours.

I have a black thumb but I'd rather be outside than in

Stunning garden

@Annabellethecat66  Topiary gardens are a true living art. It certainly takes the right person(s) to create these in many styles, characatures and the like. One must know the plant material not to mention have the right eye to create and maintain. My DH has that eye, he could do this, he does this with a few shrubs in our yard.

 

I'm not fond of these shapes but I do love topiaries.

@lolakimono I love your posts, pictures.  They brighten my day.  I greatly appreciate the time and effort it takes for you to post as you do.  I'm selfish, please keep doing it!  And I definitely want to have tea in that garden.  OMG, it's gorgeous and surely beats the snow, ice outside my office!  Thank you.

@Misplaced Parisian- You're welcome.  Levens Hall Topiary is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest topiary in the world.

Gorgeous home and amazing gardens. However, some of the shapes of the evergreens makes me feel a little tipsy!!

Money screams; wealth whispers.

@Venezia I did not know that!  I love learning things.  I want to go to Levens Hall.

 

Thanks.  I call Paris my soul's home.  One day I will be living there.  In the meantime I visit as much as possible and am writing books (free time) so I can purchase an apt there.  Dreams.
