Canes with tennis balls on top or Blue pipe used for housing outdoor electrical wires ( don't know technical term )
You have to loose sight of the shore sometimes to cross new oceans

I think blue pipe is water pipe usually....Tennis balls on canes, wire or string stretched between posts, wire hoops...can put old hose on them.
Like your ones though Flobalob...very rustic charm..don't look like they've got any snags either..do they last more than a year?Comment

Yeah blue pipe is water pipe, you are thinking about conduit for electrical cabling. But you can't bend conduit the same as water pipe.Originally posted by Liza View PostCanes with tennis balls on top or Blue pipe used for housing outdoor electrical wires ( don't know technical term )
Or rather you can, but you are likely to be left with two pieces of conduit and if it's cold, a face full of shards.
If you've got a wooden bed, pieces of wood screwed into the sides and a yoghurt pot or jam jar on the top, bricks hold the netting down on the paths.Last edited by womble; 09-04-2010, 07:16 AM."Orinoco was a fat lazy Womble"

Because I 'pocket' plant in my beds I have to devise a way of protecting single or groups of 3 brassicas from birds?
Any suggestions appreciated, but they must be ornamental. Willow hoops are the fav at the mo!
