The Mud Maid is a sculpture situated in a garden in Cornwall, UK, created from mud and plants.

At a famous botanical garden in England there is a very famous statue of a maid lying down. This statue even changes according to the seasons of the year.

The sculpture has a brilliant appearance in spring and summer; and looks completely different in fall and winter.

The Mud Maid was originally planned to be a statue of a mermaid. Plans changed when a member of the restoration team called her Mud Maid and so the tail was removed.
