I am using these on my newly planted blackberry canes and they are very easy to use, seem like they will be flexible as the plant grows, and seem durable and well-priced.

Better than cages

Comments about Garden Clips:

Tomato cages get in the way and once in place with a plant growing up inside cannot be easily adjusted or moved about to make access to the fruit more convenient.
I've taken to constructing a very simple overhead bar from which strings hang down. These garden clips attach in one motion to the string and snap closed around the branches doing zero damage to the plant. They are easily added to, moved, adjusted or removed as the plant ages. I've also used them on cukes and melons.
Great idea. Thanks GS.

Comments about Garden Clips:

I ordered these to replace the tomato clips I ordered from you last yearwhici were excellent. The ones this year were awful. They are much smaller, not as sturdy, harder to use and are just totally not a good replacement for the ones I received last year. Please go back to the original clips and do away with these flimsy ones.

Great product that helps support pepper plants when the stalks get stressed with heavy rippening peppers. Also found them useful for a variety of flowering plants when the flowers weigh down the stems.

Comments about Garden Clips:

IF these are used primarily with jute or string as the design dictates, they are outstanding. Folks wouldn't have the problems noted above with their being "too big" or otherwise not the correct size. Don't wrap them around stakes!
We are "stringing up" tomatoes and cukes that we have "caged" in the past and the result is better sunlight and drainage to all the plants resulting in greater yields with no problem about irrigation fungus.
Thanks for these. (Wish I could find them locally....)

Comments about Garden Clips:

This item saves me time binding up my floppy plants and they are strong and I don't have to keep stealing twist ties from the grocery store...:)) I like that they are reusable and I also use them to tie up my house plants that need reshaping. The only suggestion is I would like to have them come in colors instead of just the green. Would make them more visible.

Comments about Garden Clips:

The garden clips are great for my hanging petunia basket, after awhile the tend to droop so I used the clips to make it upright. I clipped the stems to the wire on the basket. I will also use it for my vegetables such as tomatoes and cucumbers to keep them from laying on the ground.

Comments about Garden Clips:

These are good to support smaller plants that don't have a larger stem. Could have been a little larger, as they don't fit around stake and some of the larger stems.

Garden Clips are so much easier to use than ties or string...they're also much less destructive to my plants. I wish I'd had these years ago. Too bad I don't have more plants to use them on.

I just started using this product but so far they are great. I used the clips for my clematis and other climbing perennials as well as for my tomatoes. I used the clips rather than twine. Work great.

Comments about Garden Clips:

Wish I'd had these years ago! Keeping plants with thorns tied to a trellis is so much easier and I don't get 'thorned'. Very easy to use. They don't look out of place and they allow plenty of room for stems to move and grow.
