Default How do I make a topiary?

I'm a novice at making such bushes, but I made a 2 tiered one,which will
hopefully become a 3 tiered one. What I did was, let it grow for a summer or
two, until it got established. Then I pruned back all the upward growing
branches, except for the center most one. I just let that one grow. Then I
would clip off all side branches off of it, in the areas I wanted bare.

I suppose a spiral one would take a bit more work, but, you get the idea.
Good luck.

Hi all,

I have some cedar or pine bushes that I'd like to try my hand at making

them
into topiary the spiral kind. I haven't been able to find any sites that
show step by step on how to do it.

Does anyone know of some good sites?

Thanks
