Wire hanging baskets to cover plants

[Alan1]

Just in case anyone is planning to buy any of these wire baskets to protect their plants from nibblers...
They are £2 in Tesco, £1.99 in B&Q, there are bigger ones in B&Q at £2.49 and the same bigger ones in Instore at £1.49.

It won't make much difference unless you are buying a few. I bought one of the bigger ones from B&Q then spotted them for £1 cheaper in Instore..as you do

Edit> they are very handy for newly bought plants until they get weathered a bit

You have just given me an idea! Just need to work out how to hang one in the enclosures for trailing petunia, would make a 'curtain' of dangling flowers for them to nibble without eating the poor plant down to the roots!

The Tesco ones would be best value for that then as you get the matting thing for inside the basket included for the £2
