SCULPTURES THAT WILL LEAF YOU SPEECHLESS

GIANT garden sculptures don't beat about the bush. The huge sculptures shown here, which are up 40-feet tall, are so unbe-LEAF-able you'll be left scratching your head. The garden sculptures made from plants growing on specially designed structures range from different animals such as a monkeys, gorillas, fish and birds, to unusual objects such as cars and pianos. These amazing sculptures were captured by Canadian photographer Sabrina Gross, 35, when she went to visit the Mosaiculture Montreal Competition, which takes place in the French-Canadian city every year
