A tomato cage does not have to be ugly. Or boring. Or not strong enough. Yep, we’ve got the solution. Take a look. My gosh, its even upcycled. I’m not sure what the sides were in a past life, but they definitely weren’t from a tomato cage. You get the idea though, maybe you could use old trellises or fence pieces.
We reuse it every year, and every few years the paint needs a touch up. One other great thing about it is that we can rearrange the horizontal rebar as needed. See, they just stick through the decorative scrolls and we can move them up as the plants grow.
We couldn’t ask for more. They even store flat. Give me a few minutes and I could probably think of more pluses. But you get the idea, so go treasure hunting and make your own.
