Troubleshooting
Obelisk is unstable after setup.
Ensure all five legs are pushed firmly and evenly into the ground. Check for loose soil or uneven terrain and adjust placement accordingly.
Plants are not climbing effectively.
Gently guide young plant stems towards the obelisk. Ensure the plant is receiving adequate sunlight and water for healthy growth.
Rust appears too quickly on the plastic-coated version.
This is unlikely unless the coating is damaged. Inspect the coating for any chips or scratches and contact customer support if significant damage is found.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up your Wigwam Obelisk, choose your desired location in the garden. Gently push the five strong legs into the ground to ensure firm anchoring. Ensure the obelisk is stable before allowing plants to climb or for it to be left uncovered.
Compatibility: This obelisk is compatible with most climbing plants, including annuals and perennials. It is suitable for use in various garden types, from formal beds to informal borders and even container gardens if adequately supported.
Care: For the plastic-coated versions, occasional wiping with a damp cloth is sufficient. For the raw steel variant, no specific care is required; its natural rusting process is part of its charm. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
