Does anyone make their own willow supports???
I would love a go - I'm sure it would be reasonably straightforward but it's getting the sticks that bother me. I'm not cutting down my tres and I just had a little google at buying them and they cost a fortune!!!

What do you use as supports? I think the willow ones are beautiful as a feature in the garden. Most of mine are makeshift. Some not to be seen. 

Most plants that I grow need supporting in someway. I definitely favour cottage garden plants and they are often tall, sometimes floppy  and need a little help. 

I've just got myself another order of 6mm steel rods - wish I'd just bitten the bullet last year and bought loads when I did as the price increase was huge this year.

They charge for cutting - but I can't get 6metre lengths in the car Sad  so even though cutting and delivery worked out the same for 40 rods thought I would get them delivered so that I didn't just have them in 3 metre lengths and can cut  some in 3 and have 2metres per support. A couple of my neighbours had some so it's worked out well having them delivered to be honest.
