Concrete angels, frogs, gnomes and more have typically been used as garden statuary pieces in America, but not for some landscape architects, like Mary Palmer Dargan, who chooses to go with the unusual statues in order to invoke mystery as the homeowner wanders their beautifully landscaped property. Take the stone statue pictured above. This North Carolina based residence landscape boasts a woodland clearing that is punctuated at one end by these layered varying-sized stones, seemingly placed one atop the other without benefit of anything to hold them together.

There is no glue obvious on the stones, to indicate they are being held together by man's touch. And there is no sign of drilling of the rock, to create some other method of keeping the stones from tumbling one upon the other. And the entire outdoor art work adds to the well-maintained woodsy clearing in which it is situated, blending in naturally with the surrounding scenery.

This particular Dargan Landscape Architect firms' display of brilliance is not an anomaly, as other properties landscaped by this husband and wife duo also boast garden statuary that is unusual and breathtaking, adding an instant conversation piece to the home landscape. Take for example the photo shown above of the statue holding fresh flowers from the home, surrounded by a wall of ivy in the background. This examiner has seen both statues in situ, and while both are breathtaking in person on their own merits, they both also could be used together in one garden (rather than the two separate gardens they adorn), and it would not be too overpowering, at least not in the expansive properties in which these two objects are currently placed.

If you are thinking about a garden sculpture for your home landscape, think about commissioning a special piece that will distinguish your landscape from those that are populated with the angels, frogs and gnomes haphazardly. There are many sculptors to choose from in order to hire to create a piece just right for your home and garden. That way you can personalize your garden, maybe even placing a sculpture in the landscape that would have special meaning for you and your family. This Examiner's favorite fine art artist is Mary Pat Wallen, and while her sculptures typically adorn the yachts and high-end offices and homes in America, this multi-media and custom artist can create just about anything you want for the home or the landscape, and with her eclectic use of diverse materials, she could easily make something that can withstand the elements outdoors . My favorite creation of hers is the "On Top of the World" sculpture. But she has so many excellent product options I could definitely have more than one favorite.

Cherub garden statues are popular garden ornaments and replicate perfectly the celestial winged being that is the cherub. They are sweet angelic creatures with delicate features.

The Cherub or Cherubim are celestial figures that have wings and usually take the form of humans, either young men or children, however animal cherubs also exist in some cultures.

They have roots in many faiths and go back way before biblical times and are recognized in these faiths as angels or attendants of God. They are believed to exist in a place that in inaccessible to influence from the devil.

Many people today have cherub garden statues in their gardens because they still believe that these ward off evil and promote happiness and well-being to those around them.

Another reason for people to adopt a statue is because it is associated with a memorial of a lost Child. It is thought that the cherub is a guardian angel that awaits the souls of those who have died at the gates of heaven and guide them to their final destiny.

With their sweet angelic features they can bring peace and comfort to those who are grieving.

Choose a spot among the flower beds to place your cherub garden statue and when you garden is in full bloom it will look like it's just flown in.
