Detroit Garden Works Plant Embracers

The Medium size, at 26 inches tall, is ideal for younger plants or shorter varieties like smaller peonies. The X-Large option offers a wider 32-inch base and 38-inch height, making it better suited for mature, sprawling hydrangeas or tall, established peony bushes that need significant structural containment.

While it is easiest to place these supports early in the season before the plant reaches full size, the cage design allows you to carefully guide stems through the structure even after growth has begun. We recommend installing them as soon as you see new shoots emerging to ensure the plant grows naturally into the support.

These Plant Embracers are built for reliable, long-term outdoor use. While they are designed to withstand the elements, the finish is intended to hold up against typical garden conditions throughout the growing season.

The goal of these supports is to provide structural integrity while remaining discreet. Once your peonies or hydrangeas reach their full size, the foliage should largely conceal the cage, leaving only the plant's shape and presentation visible.

Absolutely. While they are specifically engineered for the weight and growth habits of peonies and hydrangeas, they work well for any perennial that tends to flop over or requires structural support to maintain an upright, tidy appearance.
