<p>Before you dive into this blog you might wonder if these topiaries at Disney World and Disneyland Resort are real. I am not sure if the Peter Pan and Snow White topiaries shown here at Disney World in Florida are real, but I do know the others are as I&#8217;ve seen them up close. The only part that is not real on the topiaries in Disneyland Resort  is the yellow main on the lion. That is made out of some synthetic fiber. I hope this bit of information is helpful.</p>
<p> My girlfriend Pauline took these topiary photos while on a trip to Disney World in Florida with her 2 children, David and Valerie, a place I someday hope to enjoy to the fullest. I am a huge fan of Tinkerbell, for those of you who don&#8217;t know me well. I love the fact that Peter Pan is getting some recognition in these topiaires, he&#8217;s really how Tinkerbell came to be know now isn&#8217;t it?<span id="more-790"></span></p>

<p>This topiary of Snow White and a few of her adorable dwarfs is just remarkable. I wonder why they can&#8217;t do this in Disneyland or California Adventure. Maybe because of Florida&#8217;s climate, where it is more humid. The California sun can sure beat down on our horticulture. </p>
<p><center><a href="http://patriciaafuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/topiary-lion.jpg"><img src="http://patriciaafuller.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/topiary-lion-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="topiary-lion" width="150" height="150" class="alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-793" /></a></center></p>
<p>I&#8217;m not saying Disneyland doesn&#8217;t have some amazing topiaries, as shown here with their lion ornamental tree. I&#8217;ve looked at this lion up close and the mane is made out of some kind of synthetic fibers. This particular topiary is over by It&#8217;s A Small World, where they have the largest variety of topiaries in all of Disneyland and California Adventure displayed.</p>

<p>I love their swan featured also by It&#8217;s A Small World. The pink flowers are geraniums and are remind me of a peacocks feathers. </p>

<p>Of course Disneyland does have it&#8217;s familiar characters, such as Dumbo which is over in Fantasy land. And their Minnie Mouse topiary which is over by the Disneyland Hotel. I am not sure if I saw Mickey around anywhere!</p>
