There is no hassle with ties and wire. The covering willing make this product last for many seasons!

    Comments about Gathering Rings, Set of 3:

    I bought the extra tall ones to support some huge swamp hibiscuses and trumpet lillies in my rain garden that got blown down last year during tropical storms. I thought at first these rings were going to be too tall when I first installed them, but now my tall flowers are growing right through the loop as designed. We haven't had any real tropical storms yet, but everything has survived the first summer thunderstorms tall and strong. The slender green stakes are nearly invisible and don't detract from the blooms like bamboo stakes and ties did. I will be buying a pack of the medium size ones for the shorter lillies.

    great for taller plants that are not too heavy. Single support will bend and will not support heavier plants. I often use multiple supports for a single plant that is either too heavy or has multiple stems that need suppport.

    I like the idea of a ring closing around a small group of flowers to hold them upright. It would fit my garden better if they were about 6" shorter. Most of my flowers are not that tall, but would benefit from having some support. I already use the curved link stakes and they're great, but at times I need something else.

    I ordered these in several sizes; they are far better than the ones in the stores; I don't know how I managed without them. They are supporting gladiolas, all types of perennials, clumps of daisies that had gotten too tall, and I keep grabbing another one for another spot. Next year they'll go in the ground BEFORE things get unruly.

    works well with lighter, taller multi-stemmed plants but too flimsy for use on "heavier" plants with thicker stems and bigger flower heads. The single support will not carry much weight before bending. I use them for small groupings of glads and immature dahlias that haven't bushed out yet.

    great for use with narrower multistemmed plants or for glads planted in small groups. Definately not designed to support weightier plants, though (the support will just lean and sag under weight).

    I bought these with the intent of using them on my tall shasta daisies which aren't ready for staking yet. The supports seem flimsy but hard to make them any sturdier and still keep them lightweight. I purchased them for the large openable ring. Perhaps I'll cut them down a bit and that will make them sturdier. For now I am using them to support some droopy lilac branches. One nice thing is how well they blend in with the foliage. I have 5 of them in one lilac and you'd never know.

    These are a bit flimsy. They are effective with shorter plants but have been disappointing used with heliopsis and tall sunflowers. Must have half their height in the ground to be sturdy.

    By the time a plant is tall enough to need these stakes it is going to be too heavy for the stake to support. They are very good for shorter plants, and I do recommend the shorter ones, but these taller stakes are just not strong enough.

    Comments about Gathering Rings, Set of 3:

    After being so thrilled with last year's purchase of the shorter gathering rings for my Asiatic lilies, I thought the taller ones would be ideal to support my Oriental lilies and glads. I found that the weight of full bloom lilies and glads were too heavy for the taller gathering rings. The rods did not remain vertical and erect. Instead, they bent over easily causing the lilies to overshadow other plantings and limit the display of lilies I was trying to achieve. While the gathering ring concept is phenomenal, the product integrity or strength is flawed. Perhaps a heavier gauge steel rod should be used for the taller supports. I would still recommend the product because the concept works. It would be outstanding if it were stronger!!!

    These gathering rings do what they say they do: they support lanky plants. They're not gorgeous to look at, but they're covered up by pretty plants anyway so it doesn't matter. They're easy to use and seem pretty durable.

    Comments about Gathering Rings, Set of 3:

    As with all of the supports, I recommend that you start with the small and medium sizes, so that your plants have the support that they need during their Spring growth. I did not do that, and am now waiting for my glads, foxgloves, etc. to grow high enough for the supports to be of use. Easier to use than the linking supports, and far superior to the single stem supports.

    I thought I had bought the wrong size, at first. But once my gladiolas cam in and started blooming I am glad I bought the larger size. And they hold more than one stem at a time, I have three in each. I have bought plant supports from Gardner's Supply before so I knew where to go to right away when I need more plant supports. The fact they are enameled green make them blend in with the plants they support, so they are useful AND attractive.

    These are great for gathering bunches of flowers such as crocosmia or single flowers such as gladiolus that flop over smaller ones in the front of the beds. Easy to use and they don't wreck your flowers.
