This document provides an overview of topiary, including definitions, history, plant characteristics, creation, and maintenance. Topiary is the art of clipping plants such as trees and shrubs into decorative shapes. It was popular in ancient Rome and 17th century England. Plants used for topiary must tolerate pruning and have small, evergreen foliage. Creation involves wiring an outline and training branches to fit while pruning, and maintenance requires regular clipping to preserve the desired shape.

4. 1. Definition Of Topiary
The term topiary is derived from the Roman
word 'topiaria' meaning ornamental gardening.
Topiary is the art and practice of clipping and

using cypress trees .
Dutch in the 15th century became fascinate
with creating topiary in animals shapes, as
did 17th century England , the French
preferred creating topiary in geometric
designs.
6. 3. Characteristics Of Plant For Topiary
The plants which are used in topiary should
have following characters:
Can tolerate high training and pruning
Deep evergreen
Mostly woody
Have small foliage all the year round
Produce profuse branches quickly after
pruning
Have compact and columnar growth habits
7. 4. Plants For Topiary
Durant, China box, Cypress, Juniper, Ixora, Thuja, Child
life tree, Streblus, Clerodendrum etc. are commonly
chosen for topiary.
5. Making of Topiary
a) Planting: Selected plants from seed is better
b) Outline: Frame of outline with wire.
c) Tying and growing: The growing branches are
tied with the outline frame and grown
accordingly
d) Pruning and clipping: Necessary pruning and
clipping should be done to fit the outline.
8. 6. Maintenance
Regular pruning, clipping and cleaning should be
done for maintaining the desired size and shape.
Manuring and watering should also be done.
7. Conclusion
At last we can say that, Topiary is one type of
living sculpture that has gone in and out of favor
