Definition as written by Sis:

A tapering, four-sided shaft of stone - usually monolithic -having a pyramidal apex and often seen among the monuments of ancient Egypt.

Obelisk designs are found in many gardens. Some gardeners make them for vegetables to grow upon for saving space. Most anything may be used to create the obelisk of choice: bamboo, branches, wire, etc.

Using an obelisk in landscape design creates interest, especially growing with vines or flowers.
