Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and method for maintenance of moisture level throughout a topiary. A plurality of fluid containers disposed at different vertical levels are mounted to a metal topiary frame. The containers each contain a wick that is used to transport fluid from the containers to topiary filler material which is bound to the metal topiary frame. Each container acts to passively regulate the level of moisture content in a region of the container through wick action. Ivy may be planted on the exterior surfaces of the topiary filler material, which may be a moss material.
