It's Not a Flower

From garden #3 on our tour. This was more like a small estate with historic buildings that the owner has moved there and rehabbed back into existence, all while building his own home and maintaining over an acre (I think) of beautifully lined walkways lined with flowers, hostas, hydrangeas that climb up 50 foot trees, very cool iron gates and decorations, benches, whimsical sculptures, and so forth. It was the most magical of gardens.
Having processed hundreds of flowers, I find I'm drawn to other elements from our day.
Many interesting elements in this photo. Must have been a magnificent tour.

@kwind Thanks -- had no idea it had a name (even if it turned out to be a flower).
