philpot 5,020 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Trish and myself have been out to the garden centre to get a few bits for the greenhouse and whilst having a look at all the bits and pieces I don't really need, I came upon an instant trellis complete with leaf creeper covering the entire trellis. Okay so there are loads of hide materials out there and I know Mark is always busy making natural hides on his perm but for me, I don't really have much to make a permanent hide, this however could be cut in half, tied or clipped together in order to produce a 'V' shape hide left out to become a bit weather beaten and let the weeds grow up and among it. The cost was £25 for the smaller size and £35 for the longer one. Sizes were not clearly marked so I am going to look online. To be honest, because it fold right down, you could even use it as a portable hide for some situations. Food for thought lads. Without actually opening it up, I don't know but it might be possible to bend it round to form a 'U' shape and no need to cut. Phil PS Just been on the Gardman web site and here are some size details if of any interest. http://www.gardman.co.uk/pre-merchandise-lime-leaf-trellis.html Edited March 11, 2017 by philpot 1 Quote Link to post
mattwhite 1,993 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Looks like it could be a winner pal especially if like you say, you can leave it to get grown in and become natural. Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I'll bet it's cheaper on Ebay. Quote Link to post
philpot 5,020 Posted March 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 You would think so Stealthy but surprisingly not. Same price as the garden centre. I think I am going to get the largest one to try on one of my perms. Phil 1 Quote Link to post
