I push the poles in the ground equally spaced, gather up the tops and put the ends inside the bird.\u00a0 The bird then holds the whole trellis in place, picture on the left.\u00a0 So far they have been working out pretty well and have held up thru a couple windy thunderstorms. As the tomatoes grow and I twine up the trellises, they get stronger. I have also used this method for cucumbers and peas and beans with success. I used larger poles for the cucumbers as they can be heavy. Also it has worked in\u00a0 well with my fascination for making ceramic birds, a new reason to make more. They look\u00a0 lovely in the garden and are very functional, cannot ask for more than that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been making these sort of teepee trellises for my cherry tomato plants.
