Garden Decor and Plant Supports

Blue House is thrilled to be hosting the Bloom Metal range of handcrafted garden décor and plant supports — designed to support your plants while becoming a feature in the garden themselves.
Each piece is handcrafted right here in North Canterbury from solid steel, creating strong and sturdy supports that will age beautifully amongst your plants.
Perfect for roses, peonies, dahlias, climbing plants, vegetables and sprawling perennials.
Beautiful enough to leave in the garden all year round.
Bloom Metal will be available all festival.
