What Herbs can I use Tomato Cages on?

14 years ago

Hello! I have a whole bunch of smaller tomato cages [the ones shaped like upside-down christmas trees] and I just purchased quite a bit of herbs [thyme, parsley, sage, basil, rosemary, etc.]. I was curious if I could use any of these smaller cages on any types of herbs? Thanks for your help!

Ummm... Not that I'm aware of. Most herbs either are low growers or are self-structured.

I have to agree. Culinary herbs generally aren't climbing plants. I would look for uses with food plants or medicinal herbs.
