• Impressive vertical scale: At 8.75 feet tall, the Clairmont brings height and architectural presence to established gardens and larger planting areas.
• Room for climbing plants: The generous base and open iron framework provide multiple surfaces for roses, clematis, and vines to grow upward and around the structure.
• Substantial iron construction: At approximately 39 pounds, the Clairmont is designed as a lasting garden structure rather than a lightweight seasonal plant support.
• Secure ground anchoring: Four included 18" ground spikes install through the tabs at the base to help secure the obelisk in soil.
• Architectural from every angle: Unlike a flat garden trellis, the three-dimensional design can be viewed and planted from multiple sides.
• Beautiful with or without plants: The tall silhouette and decorative finial give the Clairmont sculptural presence throughout the year.

The Clairmont's height makes secure installation especially important. Four 18-inch ground spikes are included and designed to pass through the tabs at the base and extend deeply into the soil.

Using all four spikes helps stabilize the structure as climbing plants mature and add additional weight and wind resistance. Consider your individual soil conditions, plant load, and exposure when selecting a permanent location.

At nearly nine feet tall, the Clairmont can change the scale of a garden without requiring a large footprint. The black framework provides strong vertical definition while allowing surrounding plants and flowers to remain the focus.

• Create a focal point: Position one Clairmont in a garden bed or border to draw the eye upward.
• Grow a rose tower: Train climbing roses around the framework to create a tall display of foliage and flowers.
• Frame an entrance: Place a pair on opposite sides of a pathway, gate, or garden entrance.
• Add depth to planting beds: Position the obelisk behind lower-growing plants to create layers of height and texture.
• Create repetition: Use multiple Clairmont obelisks throughout a larger landscape for visual rhythm and continuity.
• Add winter structure: The black iron framework remains an architectural feature when deciduous climbing plants are dormant.

The open three-dimensional framework provides multiple points for training climbing plants, helping foliage and flowers develop upward and around the structure rather than along a single flat plane.

The Clairmont's black powder-coated finish creates a clean, architectural silhouette against foliage, flowers, stone, brick, fencing, and other landscape materials.

The dark framework provides definition while allowing colorful plants to take center stage. As vines mature, the iron structure can visually recede behind foliage and flowers while continuing to provide the support needed for vertical growth.

During the dormant season, the tall black framework and decorative finial remain visible, giving the garden structure and height throughout the year.

For gardeners who prefer a warmer finish, the Clairmont is also available in H Potter's signature charcoal brown powder-coated finish with hand-rubbed black detailing.

One Clairmont can become a commanding vertical focal point. Used in pairs, the obelisks can frame a garden entrance, pathway, or important view. In larger landscapes, repeating the same tall form creates rhythm and helps visually connect separate planting areas.

Each Clairmont is sold individually, giving you the flexibility to begin with one statement piece or build a larger garden composition.
