Dragon

18 years ago

I want to create a dargon topiary in my front yard. Something between dragon and sea serpent would be ideal. I don't really know where to get started. I have looked online for topiary frames and have only found 1 dragon. Does anybody have any advice for me? THANKS

Are you artistic enough to create one? If so, create your frame from chicken wire.

I'm sure this isn't exactly what you are looking for but I hope it provides some inspiration. It's the dragon from the Chinese exhibit at EPCOT in Orlando. Disney's International Flower and Garden show is on right now and I took this picture just last week. I absolutely love the use of pineapples to create the spiked head and back!
