Garden Pride Raw Gathering Rings - Brown

The raw steel is designed to rust over time, creating an antiqued, weathered appearance. This natural patina adds a unique, rustic charm to your garden, blending with natural elements.

The speed of rust development depends on environmental conditions such as humidity and rainfall. Typically, a noticeable patina will begin to form within a few months of exposure.

The rusting is an intended feature of the product. If you wish to prevent further rusting, you can apply a metal sealant once the desired level of patina has been reached.

The gathering rings are best suited for individual plants or stems, particularly those that benefit from support against drooping. For very large or sprawling plants, multiple rings or a different type of support may be more effective.

Specific dimensions vary by size. Please refer to the product listing or packaging for detailed measurements of each available size.

No cleaning is typically required. The natural weathering process is part of its aesthetic. If you need to remove dirt, a gentle wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient.

The decorative ball is an embellishment on the tip of the arm and does not have a specific functional purpose beyond aesthetics.

Ensure the stake is pushed deep enough into the soil. If the ground is very hard, moisten it first or use a rubber mallet to gently tap the stake in.

Ensure you have selected the correct size ring for your plant. If the stem has grown significantly since installation, consider a larger size or a different support method.

While minimal, some rust transfer can occur. You can apply a clear, non-toxic sealant to the ring once the desired patina is achieved to mitigate this. Alternatively, ensure the ring is positioned carefully around the stem to avoid direct contact with delicate foliage.
