Scabiosa ‘deadhead’ Stake – Rust

These elegant marker stakes are influenced by exquisitely detailed scabiosa deadheads.

The naturalistic shape sits harmoniously among plants in full summer borders, and adds a sense of life to the garden in the bare winter months.

Primarily useful for marking bulbs and plants, after rainfall the hollows on top will collect water, giving birds and insects a handy pit stop in warm weather.

Available in a choice of two finishes – rust for a traditional vintage feel or aged zinc for a more contemporary look.

With age and exposure to the elements, the metal will oxidise to produce a more rustic finish. This process will occur more quickly in areas where the powder coating has been breached.

Please note: these individually handmade and finished stakes may include some sharp points or edges. Take care when unpacking and handling them and position in a quiet spot off the beaten track. When pushing into the ground, hold the lower part of the stem and push. Do not put all your weight on the head.
