Art meets function in the garden.

Our Cardinal Plant Stake is both decorative and practical, giving climbing plants and tall stems the support they need while adding a burst of character. Whether it’s peeking out from a Calathea indoors or standing tall in a summer garden, the Cardinal silhouette adds beauty to the everyday. Made from weathering Corten steel, it transforms with the seasons, turning from steel grey to a warm rusted finish that blends seamlessly into nature.

This piece is more than support—it’s a statement. Perfect for plant parents, gardeners, or anyone who loves Cardinals, it makes a thoughtful and useful gift.

Generous height... two pieces, each 20" (51 cm), 40" (102 cm) when assembled
Easy to assemble... slide joints together to complete the stake
Practical support... keeps plants upright and thriving
Durable steel... 1/7-inch (3 mm) Corten steel forms a protective patina
Gift-worthy... shipped in a large box, 16" x 13" x ¼" (41 x 33 x 0.6 cm), 1lb (454 g)

How to install your Cardinal Plant Stake

  1. Assemble the pieces – slide the two joints together until firm.
  2. Pick your plant – ideal for both pots and garden beds.
  3. Push into soil – steady pressure ensures it’s well seated.
  4. Adjust support – use it to guide stems or climbing plants.

Top Tip: Use it indoors with leafy houseplants—the Cardinal design adds joy even when the plants aren’t in bloom.

Is it for indoor or outdoor use?
Both. The Cardinal Plant Stake is designed for versatility—it works just as well supporting indoor houseplants as it does in garden beds or planters outdoors.

How tall is it?
When assembled, the stake stands 40" (102 cm) tall, giving plenty of height to support taller plants while still looking graceful.

What material is it made from?
It’s made from 1/7-inch (3 mm) Corten steel, a durable material that naturally develops a rusted finish which protects the steel underneath.

Will it rust?
Yes, intentionally. The patina that forms not only gives it a natural, earthy look but also seals and protects the stake for years of use.

Is it a good gift?
Absolutely. Plant lovers adore gifts that combine beauty and practicality. The Cardinal design adds whimsy, while the stake itself supports plant health.

Each Metalbird is crafted from Corten® Steel, a premium, weathering steel made to last.

When it meets the elements, it doesn’t rust like your old BBQ. It transforms.

That change you’re seeing? That’s patina. A tough, protective outer layer that seals the steel, adds character, and preserves your bird for decades.

This isn’t paint. It’s nature’s way of ageing gracefully.

The Patina Process:

At first, you’ll notice bright orange spots (we call this the teenage phase). Soon enough, the whole bird will turn a bold orange, slowly shifting into deep burnt umber. Eventually, it settles into a moody charcoal that feels like it’s always belonged.

The Result? A piece of industrial art with a heartbeat. No peeling, no fading, just a bird that gets better with age.
