Bunny topiary
A bunny topiary is a rabbit shaped in greenery over a welded steel frame — sitting upright, crouched, or standing with the ears back. Ours are built on galvanized armatures and finished in hand-packed sphagnum moss, wrapped in live outdoor boxwood, or left as bare wire for planting up yourself. They run from a doorstep piece you can lift with one hand to a life-size rabbit for a lawn or an Easter display.
Made in our own workshopWelded, galvanized and covered here — not drop-shipped.

How it is finished
The same bunny, four ways.
Every piece starts as the same welded, galvanized steel frame. What goes over it is the choice.
What it needs once it is standing.
A mossed piece wants misting through dry spells and a refresh of the moss every year or so. A bare frame wants nothing at all until you decide to plant it. Turf and artificial pieces want an occasional rinse and no more — no watering, no trimming, no seasonal work.
The steel underneath is the part that decides how long the piece lasts, and galvanized steel outdoors is measured in decades rather than seasons.
Full instructions by material are on our care pages; if a piece has gone tired, this eight-year-old swan shows what a restoration looks like.
In the workshop
Steel first, then green.
Three of the six stages every piece goes through. The frame is the sculpture; everything after it is surface.
02Steel rod, bent and weldedSteel rod bent by hand and welded into a cage that carries the pose. Anything over six feet also gets steel tubing run inside it.
03Galvanized, welds includedGalvanized over every surface including the welds — which is exactly where outdoor steel fails first.
04Sphagnum packed by handLong-fibre sphagnum packed into the cage by hand and bound down, so the piece is green the day it arrives.
The full sequence — drawing, welding, galvanizing, mossing, planting and installation — is set out step by step in how a topiary form is made.
Before you order
Bunny topiary questions, answered.
What sizes do bunny topiaries come in?
The pieces on this page start around 14 inches for a doorstep or table rabbit and run to life-size for a lawn. Every listing gives its exact height, length and depth — a rabbit that reads well beside a door looks lost on an open lawn.
Can a bunny topiary stay outside all year?
A bare wire frame can, and so can a live boxwood-wrapped piece. A mossed rabbit prefers shelter — a porch, a covered patio, a conservatory — because sun and driving rain wear sphagnum down over a season.
Can I plant a bunny topiary?
Yes, and that is what the bare frames are for. Creeping fig, ivy and small-leaved climbers are the usual choices; a mossed rabbit can also be planted into later, because the moss holds the root run.
Do you make a life-size rabbit?
We do, and larger. Scale is a commission question rather than a catalogue one — send the height you want and where it will stand and we will come back with a design and a price.
How does a bunny topiary ship?
Small and medium rabbits go by UPS. Anything large travels by freight, and the delivery is quoted with the piece so there is no surprise at checkout.
