Living Plant Sculptures
Amazing topiary sculptures from around the world. The detail in these are stunning. Its interesting that both the male and female plant sculptures, that are combined with fountains, have the water flowing through their hands.
These are beyond gorgeous. Truly exquisite works of art.

…Sorghum is a gluten free alternative too… -Saunya
Sorghum is a titan in the history of agricultural crops. The original seeds were collected 8,000 years ago in southern Egypt. From there, sorghum traveled through Africa, India, Asia and both Americas. Today, this family of grasses is grown worldwide for human consumption, animal feed and biofuel. Sorghum is particularly drought-tolerant, which makes it a desirable crop in arid lands, where the conditions would quickly stress other plants. It is the fifth most important cereal crop in the world, the third most important in the United States.
