If you haven’t had many thoughts in your life surrounding topiary, the art of sculpting and forming trees and their branches into lifelike shapes, that’s about to change.
Every year in springtime, Disney’s Epcot theme park presents the International Flower and Garden Festival. A popular attraction during the celebration is always the park’s tremendous topiary in the shape of iconic Disney characters. The sculptures are meticulously planned and produced, to the delight of fans everywhere.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up nine of our favorites found on the web. Visit the links in each picture’s description to learn more.
