T has been busy making plant supports for me.


T has been busy making plant supports for me.

I needed new canes and after seeing some metal plant supports in an open garden last year and some fancy thin metal ones in Aldi last week he volunteered to make me some from strong steel. These are the first ones, he made them this morning as well as some half round hoops to support the large plants. I don't think he realised just how many I want him to make!!! He has run out of the steel so he has to go and get loads more....lol

They're the bees knees Homebird. I saw Monty bending some steel for plant supports on Gardener's World a while ago but nothing as artistic as this.

They are super, Homebird. The last one ... with love.

HB they are superb! My own special 'designer' is pretty good at coming up with things to help me in the garden, but I think he would have quite a job to match these pieces of true art.

That's quite funny Sheila . . . I think most of us are at the stage of having a rusty memory! We'll be up to 48 years in August - congrats to us all, lol :))

Yes Sheila . . . luck does play a part. When we're young we don't really know each other, so it's a relief when our judgement turns out well!
