Green Animals Topiary Garden
Green Animals Topiary Garden Review
This large topiary garden on a Victorian estate contains more than 80 shrubs sculpted into animals, geometric designs, and other shapes; among the oldest, begun before 1920, are an elephant, a camel, and a giraffe. Also here are flower gardens, winding pathways, a variety of trees, and the 1872 estate house, which displays original family furnishings and an antique toy collection.
