Arbour Maintenance: 

The Rowlinson Arbour Seat is made from pressure-treated timbers for excellent durability and longevity. Rowlinson’s pressure-treated products do not require annual re-treatment. If desired can be painted or stained. An anti-rot solution in the timber structure, improves rot resistance. The treatment may leave a greenish tinge on the wood; this is normal and will grey over time. The manufacturer advises that if you want to paint your garden arbour with a different colour, ensure the treatment you choose is recommended for pressure-treated timber.
