Obelisks are a wonderful way to add old world charm while expanding vertical growing space and adding focal points to otherwise unused spaces. Group them together and form a screen or add one next to the house to break up a boring wall. Set two opposite each other for an instant gateway. We like our obelisks filled with herbs like Winter Savory, English Thyme, Chives, Parsley or Basil (to name a few!). For color, we might add one of our fragrant Dianthus or Santa Barbara Daisy. An elegant look would be to have a column of ivy or sweet peas running up the Obelisk. Shoot, you could even use them to trellis a bean plant or squash, or maybe a tomato. We offer four distinct Vertical Planters. Some come with baskets or without. Some have a choice of finishes. All of our obelisks are pointed on the bottom for easy "planting" in the ground or in a container. |

| All Obelisks with baskets (except for the
5 foot Patio Stand at the bottom of the page) come with coco
liners. After a year or two they will need to be relined. This can be done
using our
basket liners or
sphagnum moss. To fill the baskets use one of our soil options, like our
Organic Gro Mix. |

These attractive scroll work patio stands bring the garden into areas that might otherwise go to waste. Bring your herbs right to the kitchen door or barbecue area. With their matte black finish are also decorative enough to use as storage units in the kitchen or bath. Just remove the coco liners and add towels, tubers or any other household items. Some of our favorite plants to put in baskets are the smaller herbs and flowers. Herbs like Winter Savory, Chives, Garlic Chives, English or Lemon Thyme and Basil all do well in baskets. Santa Barbara Daisy, Nova Dianthus, Kent Beauty Oregano, Nutmeg Scented Geranium and Fruity Tuecrium are smaller flowers with punch. Strawberries also look great hanging over the sides of the baskets and the baskets get the fruit up off the ground where pests and disease can be a problem. The two basket model (pictured on the
left) is 3.5 feet tall and the three basket
model (pictured on the right) is 5 feet tall. They are made from light weight, yet durable 16mm
steel tubing The baskets come with coco liners and measure 11.8 inches in
diameter. Two Basket $49.95. Three Basket $59.95. Order here. |

The traditional liner for hanging baskets,
Sphagnum Moss gives baskets that old world charm. Soak the moss in a
bucket until pliable and then start at the top of the basket, folding the
moss over the rim on both sides. Then apply more moss to the inside of the
basket, making sure that the top side of the moss is facing out. Since Sphagnum Moss can potentially harbor the fungal disease causing Sporothrix schenckii spores, which enter the skin through open wounds, please be sure to wear gloves when using Sphagnum. 820 Cubic Inches (good for one large basket). $ 8.95 |
