    I use a wigwam and string. You can use pea netting or trellis. It depends on what suits your growing area.

      They have tendrils PT so anything that they can hold onto.

        Wigwams made from canes, garden arches, netting. Mine are growing up an old cane bed headboard!

          Mine grow up my shed - shed is painted brown so I have brown 2" plastic mesh stapled onto it so it isn't obvious in winter.

            I have some very cheap netting (supposed to protect stuff from birds) and I staple-gunned it to the fence. It seems to be working fine and I'm already picking plenty of flowers. I've found this easier than previouis years when I've put up wigwams, frames with a trellis attached etc.

              Just thought I'd post a pic I've just taken. These are growing in troughs.

                Great pic Bigmally, I'll try posting one tomorrow.

                And when your back stops aching,
                And your hands begin to harden.
                You will find yourself a partner,
                In the glory of the garden.
