FAQs

What type of wood is the obelisk made from?

The obelisk is made from sturdy pine wood.

What are the dimensions of the obelisk?

The obelisk is 1.5 meters tall.

Can this obelisk be used in a pot?

Yes, it can be used in containers, provided the container is large and stable enough to support the obelisk and the growing plant.

Is assembly difficult?

No, the obelisk is designed for easy assembly, typically involving pushing it into the ground.

How should I care for the wooden obelisk?

To maintain its condition, consider applying a wood sealant annually and keeping the base clear of debris. Clean with a damp cloth if needed.

What plants is this obelisk best suited for?

It is perfect for climbing plants like roses and clematis, as well as runner beans and small trees.

Does it come in other colours?

This specific product is described as Green (colour family), suggesting it may be available in other variants or colours.

Troubleshooting

Obelisk is unstable after placement

Ensure the obelisk is pushed firmly into the ground to a sufficient depth. If in a container, check that the container is heavy and stable enough or consider adding extra soil weight around the base.

Wood appears to be weathering or fading

Apply a suitable wood sealant or preservative to protect the pine from UV rays and moisture. This is a natural process for untreated wood exposed to the elements.

Plant is not climbing the obelisk effectively

Gently guide young plant stems towards the obelisk structure and tie them loosely if needed to encourage initial growth. Ensure the plant is suitable for climbing and has adequate light and water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify a suitable location in your garden bed, border, or a sufficiently large container.
  2. Gently push the pointed end of the obelisk into the soil to the desired depth, ensuring it is stable.

Care:

  • To prolong the life of the pine wood, consider applying a clear sealant or wood preservative annually, especially before the winter months.
