Some years ago and before I moved house, I used 8ft plastic canes
(simulated bamboo) to support runner beans. Are you able to supply, or
give me a source of supply of this item. Any idea of prices plus
delivery? Thank you for your time.
Regards.
John.
The larger B&Q sheds sell green plastic canes in various lengths from 4
foot
to 8 foot

Thank you. I've looked in B & Q a couple of times
but received negative answers.
John.
If they're what I'm thinking of the tops are blunt and rounded and the
whole
thing is a bit knobbly looking? I just can't think when I last saw such
canes because I've never used them myself.
That is exactly the ones. They had them all this summer in my local B&Q
which is Handforth, and I'm sure I've seen them in the Stockport B&Q over
summer. I was going to buy a load to rig up a lightweight cage to tidy up my
raspberries (Autumn Bliss, so they virtually support themselves, just fall
over onto the paths occassionally) but they didn't get very tall this year.
Still fruiting happily though, and I've got many kilos of jam making
material in the freezer
