Is the wood treated to withstand the weather?
Yes, the planter and trellis are made from dry-graded timber that is pressure-treated for durability and resistance to rot and decay.

Troubleshooting
Planter and trellis do not align correctly.
Ensure the planter is placed flush against the bottom edge of the trellis before screwing. If holes do not align perfectly, a slight adjustment to the planter's position may be needed before tightening screws.
Screws are difficult to insert.
Use a power drill with an appropriate bit. Ensure the bit is correctly seated in the pre-drilled hole. If resistance is high, a small pilot hole can sometimes be cleared gently.
Wood shows signs of weathering or discoloration.
This is normal for natural timber. Apply a suitable wood preserver or stain annually to protect the wood and refresh its appearance.
Unit feels unstable after setup.
Ensure the unit is placed on a level surface. If necessary, fill the planter with soil and plants to add weight and stability. Check that all screws are securely tightened.
