Glamorous topiary trees

I'm not known for being a green thumb, but I'm fallen in love with topiary trees whether artificial or not.  They're so elegant and they remind me of days growing up in the east coast where we'd drive by lovely colonial Virginia homes with perfectly manicured lawns.

Photos taken in the Financial District - I used to walk by this restaurant every day on my way to work.  I commend the designer for the striped awnings and black and gold exterior.  

My version of using topiary trees in my decor.  They needed to be dressed up a bit so I used the grosgrain ribbon from a Net-a-porter purchase I made.
