Deceptively easy topiary
Article Abstract:
Simple topiary designs can be made by bending a piece of wire in circular shape which can then be positioned over a decorative planter. Vines such as confederate jasmine, small ivy and Japanese star jasmine can be grown to wrap around the wire until young trailers flow over the planter's brim.
