Read about Labyrinths in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Labyrinths or mazes are intricate and confusing networks of walks and passages within hedges of evergreen, formerly employed as a garden entertainment and conceit. They are still kept up in some Old World gardens as relics of the past. They were popular in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Fig. 2054 is the plan of an English labyrinth of two centuries ago. It would be vandalism to destroy so fine an example of a style of gardening no longer fashionable, but folly to copy it in a modern garden. Mazes are made of clipped evergreens of various kinds. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
