whoa turbo, thats one sexy momma. :hubba: . ask her would she like a bit 'o Irish lov'in.:D .

very nice job 4u.

i use the same wire, only we call it 2x4 fencing, cause todays 2x4's will fit through it.;) .
 
:ciao: friends..thanks for stopping in my yard..


Buddyluv...she was a clipping from an 8 foot Monsterlast summer..grown in Oragon..The fence is 4ft high and will trty and keep her in and around it..im hopeing that i will keep her under 6 feet..we will see..

IRISH....She may want some Irish Loveing..after the way I treat her somedays:rofl: Thanks for the kind words


another update when i get a chance..until then take care and be safe:bolt::bong:
 
on another note, if you sustain high winds in your area, as we often do, you may want to cable her fencing down tight, so's she don't take any bad bumps.;) .

i gave the same advice to old hippy last spring, and lo, and behold, the cabling was a wee bit late. the trees came crashing down.:eek: . i imagine his face looked like that when he went to care for his beauties, to find them looking like a few pounds light.:eek: .

some tent stakes at her base works alright, but, pay close attn. to the top. give her a crowfoot tie down, from the top. don't expect to be seeing no post here stating 'high wind mishap to frosting mom, funeral today'.;) :cool: :) ...

great work man...
 
:ciao: IRISH.. I used 3/8 inch all thread 7 feet long...pounded 3 feet into grounf and spaced about 1.5 feet away all around..and then tie wired the fence to those...she aint going no where ..Thanks for stopping in and looking ahead..I have all ready planned for the elements..just need to see how i do..take care and be safe
 
Thanks for telling me your Mother went into the ground. I like to follow some of the "outdoor" threads. I really like your cage, I showed it to the husband. Maybe incorporate that into our garden, or something like it. I do have to tie them to stakes due to wind (when they get a bit bigger), so a cage might be the ticket. I am also trying to "think ahead" this year. (thinking also to next year, I want to grow in the ground, not pots)
Gonna be watchin' 4u.
 
Got me good, came to offer sympathies, instead offer my congrats, beautiful lady you got there. Great job!
 
That looks nice, congrats on a healthy plant. My question is why is it caged? I know it has to do with protecting her from something, but what? Reason I ask is because that welded wire fencing will allow almost everything past aside from large animals. I use hardware cloth with small holes instead because I have rabbits, gophers and simular size animals. I also cage the entire root ball into the hardware cloth and some chicken wire to protect her bottom.
