How do I ensure the obelisk stays upright?

For maximum stability, ensure the obelisk is placed on flat ground and its 4 legs are buried up to 12 inches into the soil.

Can this obelisk support heavy plants?

It offers good load-bearing capacity for most climbing plants and flowers. For very heavy or dense plants, additional support or careful pruning might be beneficial.

Troubleshooting

Obelisk is wobbly or unstable.

Ensure all stakes are inserted deeply and evenly into the ground (up to 12 inches). Verify the ground is flat and that the stakes are firmly seated.

Parts do not fit together during assembly.

Double-check that you are using the correct parts for the step indicated in the instructions. Ensure there are no obstructions in the pre-drilled holes.

Epoxy coating appears damaged.

For minor chips, touch up with a suitable metal paint designed for outdoor use to prevent rust. For significant damage, consider replacing the affected section or the entire unit if structural integrity is compromised.
