Ground Spinner FAQ
Where should I put a garden spinner?
In an open spot that catches the breeze: a lawn, the edge of a flower bed, along a fence or by the mailbox. Spinners need moving air, so avoid tucking them behind walls or dense shrubs.
Can ground spinners stay out all year?
They're built for outdoor use, but bringing them in during storms, heavy snow or the off-season keeps the colors bright and the moving parts working longer.
