Box hedging is commonly used to create maze-like shapes in knot gardens, with these patterns being typically symmetrical in their design and often featuring areas for planting, where trees, roses and other flowers can be added. Parterres originate from France in the 16th century and are still very much a part of formal landscaping today.
