'Topiary might strike one as a rather down to earth subject, but in fact it is here treated in a most diverting fashion, tracing the art throughout the ages since Adam was put into the Garden of Eden 'to dress and to keep it'. Peter Barker Mill decided to create a series of pairs of facing blocks, each pair to be in a different combination of colours, some that in the old days no-one would have dreamed of putting together. He took great delight in showing how they could be combined to get the most attractive and apposite effects.' (Cock-a-Hoop pp.33).
