This gothic garden obelisk provides support for climbing plants in borders, patios and containers. The pointed arch design and decorative finial give a traditional appearance, while the solid steel construction supports roses, clematis, honeysuckle and other climbing plants as they grow. Gothic Garden Obelisk For Roses And Climbers The gothic obelisk is built to handle the weight of mature climbing plants. Roses, clematis and honeysuckle grow up the frame, creating height in planting areas. The black powder-coated finish suits cottage gardens, formal borders and courtyard settings. Solid Steel Obelisk With Weather Resistant Coating Made from heavy gauge solid steel, this obelisk is designed for long-term outdoor use. The black powder coating protects against rust and weathering, keeping the frame strong through all seasons. The decorative finial at the top completes the gothic design. Garden Obelisk Sizes For Different Planting Areas Two height options are available to suit different garden layouts. The 5ft obelisk works in smaller borders, raised beds and large containers, while the 6ft version provides extra height for vigorous climbers or taller displays. Both sizes measure 457mm (18 inches) wide at the base, giving a stable footprint. For a more classic look, see our classic obelisk here.
