Allotments 4 All

Have been looking at Tony's use of Wilkies arches. This morning I got Lidl special offers. Rose Arch CMS 240 x 133 x38.5 £4.88 each. Available from Thursday 5th March. Are these similar Shirl?

 Yes Lorna tehy do look the same. I think wilkies only do them in green. The price is about the same too.

Thanks Shirl.

How wide is the base for these arches please?

 The Wilkinson arches when the top half is made up will support a 7ft enviromesh or net, You will probably have to bury the bottoms of the frames about 5"under the soil.but this will also add to the stability.

hi there
just wondering if these could be used to grow squash up?

I did mention to Betty about growing them up the arches but she said they really need a strong structure cos they can get very heavy so Im going to take her advice and grow them up canes like runner beans,
