    Because i am going to be growing fruit in containers
    i want to protect them from the birds. So i decided to make a cage to keep them off.
    The containers sit on gravel and underneath that is concrete, so i couldn't put any stakes in the ground so i got some large bamboo's and stuck them in each pot them draped netting over the top. That should stop the little critters in their tracks.

    It works too. I did it the year we moved here, and i'd potted the trees ready for transportation. [​IMG] But summer came before the signing of the contract. [​IMG] The only problem was hubby. he could reach under the net. :eek:
