The Amazing Gardens of Pearl Fryar, Evergreen Surrealist
In 1984 Pearl Fryar decided he wanted to win the "Yard of the Month" in his town of Bishopville, South Carolina. So he grabbed his shears and decided to start shaping some of the evergreens on his 3 acre lot. Twenty three years later and many "Yard of the Month" awards later, Pearl has created on the nations most unique topiary gardens.

Every year plants are added with many being salvaged seedlings from local nurseries to make the total number of plants 500. Take a look at the incredible results
