British gardener grows an impressive dragon in his own backyard

John Brooker is a Norfolk, England gardener who has devoted ten years of his life to creating a true work of art in his own backyard: a dragon of stunning proportions made from topiary.

Topiary is a technique of pruning plants in ornamental forms, but the gardener has done much more than that. With the talent of Edward Scissorhands, Brooker gave life to a dragon just over 30 meters long and 6 meters high.

To give the creature an even more realistic touch, the artist has shaped the wings and six pairs of paws that spread along the dragon's body. The pro revealed to The Daily Mail that he is dedicated for a few hours every day to pruning the branches to maintain the shape of his beautiful dragon.

The overall appearance of the work resembles the Chinese dragons - figures that appear in tattoos, sculptures and traditional festivals - but there are also those who remember Game of Thrones and Harry Potter. And you, dear reader, what is your guess for the gardener's inspiration ?!
