FAQs

What material are these plant supports made from?

They are made from solid steel.

How do I link the bows together?

Each bow has hooks in the corners that allow them to be connected to other bows to create various shapes like rows or circles.

Will these supports stop my plants from falling over in the wind?

Yes, they provide sturdy support and are particularly useful for rescuing and reviving wind-blown plants.

Can I change the shape of the bow?

Yes, the bows can be gently bent to better suit the plants they are supporting.

When is the best time to use these plant supports?

The perfect time to use them is towards the middle and end of the season as plants reach their full growth and can become top-heavy.

Do I need to do anything to maintain the rusty finish?

No, the supports are designed to rust naturally in the garden. This is part of their aesthetic.

Are there different sizes available?

Yes, these versatile support bows come in six different sizes to support a wide variety of plants.

Troubleshooting

Bow is unstable or tipping over.

Ensure the legs are inserted deeply and securely into the soil. If the ground is very soft, consider using a wider base or linking multiple bows for added stability.

The rust level is not as expected.

The product is supplied at various degrees of rustiness and will continue to develop its rustic appearance once exposed to the elements in your garden.

Need to support a very large plant.

Utilize the largest available bow size and consider linking multiple bows together to create a larger support structure. You can also use the method of inserting deep and gradually pulling up.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides sturdy support for mature or wind-damaged plants.
  • The natural rust finish offers an attractive, weathered aesthetic.
  • Can be linked together for customized support configurations.
  • Bendable design allows for tailored plant support.
  • Available in multiple sizes to suit different plant types.

Cons

  • Supplied with varying degrees of rust, which may not be uniform.
  • Will continue to rust, which may not be desired for all garden aesthetics.
  • Small size may not be suitable for very large or exceptionally tall plants without modification or linking.
  • Requires manual insertion into the ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select the appropriate size bow for your plant.
  2. Gently insert the legs of the bow into the soil around the base of the plant. Push them in deep enough to ensure stability.
  3. If using multiple bows, use the corner hooks to connect them into desired shapes (rows, circles, etc.).
  4. For taller plants, consider inserting the bow deep and gradually pulling it up as the plant grows.

Compatibility:

These supports are designed for a wide variety of garden plants, including perennials, shrubs, and flowering plants that require upright support. They are particularly effective for plants that tend to become top-heavy or sprawl.

Care:

The product is designed to rust naturally in the garden environment. No specific care is required beyond occasional cleaning if dirt accumulates. Ensure the supports are firmly planted to prevent tipping. In areas with very harsh winters, consider removing them to prevent frost heave from dislodging them, though they are built for outdoor durability.
