A cheeky gardener went viral for cutting his bush into a middle-finger but now wants to burn it after branding the hedge a complete "pain in the backside".
Richard Jackson, 64, once proudly displayed his 10 foot rude topiary in front of his garden and became a social media star for doing so.
When he first cut it - 20 years ago - it was only a joke for drinkers who teased him while he trimmed the hedges at a pub opposite his home in the village of Warton, Warwickshire.
