      I have never seen cacti used in this formal type garden before!

      Doesn't really work for me.

      It's different, but boring.

      I wonder how many weeks they are able to make this display.
      Must be lots of work looking after the plants in winter.
      The individual plants look immaculate.

      wow , how was just thinking how heavy it`s my barrel cactus , unbealivable it`s in Sweden , but I don`t think it`s a perennial garden , but more of a moving plants around , no point to overwinter a garden that is covered by snow 6 months a year .
      but it would be really interesting to understand what they do.

        OMG that's a LOT of work for 2 months of display! I think it resembles a mosaic.
