Picture of Trellis - Tipnut.comYou can make a trellis for flowers or climbing plants, such as tomatoes, using old wire clothes hangers and a piece of narrow board.

Sharpen end and drive in ground. Use staples (like for a wire fence) to fasten the hangers to the board.

Tie up plants with strip of old sheets.

It is soft and doesn’t cut in. Can be taken up and used for a long time.

Clean and paint before storing away for fall.
