Darren Lerigo – the provocations of the modern topiarist

This week we talk to topiary artist Darren Lerigo about his work in specialist pruning and topiary. He talks about his ‘provocations’ – modern and innovative ideas to bring this ancient art up to date, as well his techniques, the best time to prune, which tools to use and his thoughts on the best plants for topiary if Buxus is not an option!
