Hi,
I'm interested in having some topiary creations of my own and would like to know what tree/shrubs are best suited for beginners (ie. easy to train, easy to trim and shape) Any ideas appreciated. *I'll probably start off with a "ball shape" since it appears to be the most easiest to accomplish. |

| In zone 2b, it's a bit difficult for me to recommend a plant. I was going to suggest a boxwood, but I don't really know how it will do in your climate. Ianna |
