| Trellis is made from trimmed Crape Myrtle branches! |
Is our garden not absolutely amazing? I love walking through and seeing all the different ideas, that everyone is coming up with to trellis their vegetables. Jim, in beds 34 & 35, has a re-bar and fence material structure that is so far in the ground that he can pretty much guarantee it is not going anywhere. This structure to the right was erected on Memorial Day in bed 39 for trellising their tomatoes.
For anyone needing inspiration or for those unsure of what they would like to try, Google Images has a wealth of ideas. Just open the Google search engine, click Images on the black toolbar at the top, and type trellising in the garden. Press enter and voila! As if the first page isn't enough, if you click show more results at the bottom, well let us just say a trip to Lowe's or Home Depot may be in order. I'm sensing a conduit run, grin!

| Rita & Elise's creative pot structure! |
The creative projects also popping up show a wonderful display of thinking outside the box! From Jane's pitchfork and antique bottles to Rita and Elise's new pot tower, I am inspired to take the time and enjoy the pure beauty of being creative in the garden once again.
For those wishing to explore their creative side, many of the DIY stores have wonderful ideas on their websites. I love the project found below on the Lowe's site and it will be one of my next attempts at doing something artistic for trellising peas, or should I say Rick's attempt. Where's that Honey Do List?

I ran across this project to the right on Pinterest and for some reason it really catches the eye. Does anyone have some good ideas for anchoring it down? I'm thinking if I were to use fiberglass doors for longevity, that while sturdy, it would be rather lightweight for heavy winds. I would really enjoy some suggestions.
So many ideas,
Denise, Beds 25 & 29
