A lot of plants prefer to grow up or lean on support as they grow.

Q: What kinds of things can I use to support my plants as they grow?

A: The options are endless! Get creative with what you have. Some of our favorites include the poles shown in the video, t-posts, hand-made trellises made from a wood frame and string, and bamboo pole teepees (for beans and peas). We also love using garden velcro to secure the plants to the supports as they grow.

I contradicted myself there! I do NOT use tomato cages for tomatoes. They're too small. I do however use tomato cages for pepper plants. :)

What do you use for structural supports in your garden?

Keep growing,
