Title: L shaped plant supports
Post by: mrs bouquet on June 03, 2020, 17:31
Somebody has sold me quite a few of these in different heights.  They have been used.   Should they be in sets of 3 or 4, and how the devil do they work  :mad:   So far I have found them impossible to set up and thrown them out of my sight.  Advice please,   Mrs Bouquet.    Now I know why, she didn't want them.   ::)
