This horticulture art started during the romes around 16th century. Before, topiaries are synonym with formal concept in most castles and other corporate image garden. However, this concept had developed over period and has become a bit wild, artistic and more futuristic ever since. To make topiary, usually people use living species include rosemary, ivies boxwood and various coniferous species. However, Malaysia had only practiced topiary on several famous species include kemuning, beringin kuning (Ficus Benjamina), pokok Ara (F Nitida variegata) dan daun teh.
