The Savage Works Rain Catcher Clusters are ideal for gardeners looking to combine artistic structure with functional plant support in their outdoor spaces. These 1-meter tall sculptural stakes offer a unique aesthetic that evolves as the raw steel develops a rustic orange patina over time, though users should be prepared for the natural weathering process to stain surrounding surfaces during the initial transformation phase.

No. The Savage Works Rain Catcher Clusters are designed to rust naturally, and applying paint or sealer would prevent the intended rustic patina from forming.
While they are sturdy, they are primarily decorative. They work best for lighter shrubs and tall flowers rather than heavy vines.
The stakes are built for year-round outdoor use and will handle winter rain and snow without compromising their structural integrity.
No, the head sizes are fixed as part of the sculptural design to ensure the aesthetic balance of the cluster.
Natural rusting depends on your local climate and humidity, typically taking several weeks to develop a rich, full orange color.
Yes, each stake stands 1 meter tall, which includes the portion that will be inserted into the ground.
Ensure the stakes are driven deep enough into the subsoil; consider using a rubber mallet to secure them firmly if the ground is loose.
Relocate the clusters to a garden bed or mulch area, or place a protective rubber pad underneath the stake if you must keep it on stone.
Apply a light spray of salt water to the surface once or twice daily to catalyze the natural oxidation process.
To install, select a firm spot in your garden bed and press the 1-meter stakes deep enough to ensure they remain upright when supporting the weight of your plants. For soil that is particularly hard or rocky, consider using a pilot hole before insertion to avoid bending the stakes. Because these ornaments are designed to rust, it is highly recommended to place them in soil or mulch rather than directly onto finished decking or light-colored concrete paths, as the initial runoff can leave permanent orange marks. No specialized care is required; simply clear away any debris from the bases as needed. If you ever need to clean the surface, a simple dry brush will suffice, as cleaning agents are unnecessary and may interrupt the natural oxidation process.
