But perhaps an
old-fashioned playpen, rather than one of the 'lobster pot' ones, would do
the trick.


Oh I can understand that one, GOOD idea Sacha. Maybe I can get a
second-hand one or even a second-hand puppy pen. Thanks


I haven't been following this thread, but many years ago I visited the
potting-shed of an old gardener, and he had his (clay) pots hanging from
a beam in his shed.

The beam had a row of nails, and the pots were on a line. The line had a
loop at the top and a cut nail crossways on the bottom.

Voila! A hanging barrage for when you're groping around in the dark!


Buy half a dozen of those cheap plastic net scrunchy jobs sold for
exfoliating yourself in the shower. Remove the cord holding the loops
together, you will be left with a couple of metres of net tube which
will expand to take up to a 15cm diameter pot, and is flexible enough
to cope with differing shapes. Tie a knot in one end and thread a piece
of cord through as a drawstring at the other. Hang up or not, as
desired.
