This Doberman topiary stands 36 inches high, 40 inches long and 10 inches wide, shaped as a watchful dog in profile with pricked ears and a lifted head. The wire frame is hand-crafted and packed with sphagnum moss, with detailed brown eyes giving the face character.
At full size, it suits a garden bed, entrance or lawn where a life-sized dog silhouette can be seen from a distance rather than tucked into a border.
Because the fill is sphagnum moss rather than turf, the shape holds its green color without mowing, and the wire body can be underplanted or have trailing plants trained through it over time for a fuller, greener look. The frame is built and delivered in sections.
Each topiary is handmade, so moss coverage and exact proportions vary slightly from piece to piece.
