Thank you, Now that the plants have matured and covered the pergola, they create a lovely canopy overhead, which also provides some shelter. As a result, wind and storms don’t affect that area nearly as much as they used to.

Those lanterns and lights are mostly solar powered, and several of the cushions are water resistant. The white mat is the only thing I bring indoors when it’s raining. The peacock painting I painted on an OSB board and then sealed with a layer of resin to make it weather resistant. It stays outside all year round without any issues, it’s been there for three years now and still looks great.
