Gripple Wire Tensioning Kit

Gripple Wire Tensioning Kit Code: XGR001

£44.95 inc. p&p 44.9500

The Gripple system is the fastest way to support climbing plants, fruits and vegetables, removing the need to work with awkward and unmanageable metal wire. It is ideal for raspberries, blackberries, grape vines and trained fruit trees. The system can be used on walls, fences and posts.  Easy to use - the solid U.V. stabilized nylon wire is fed through vine eyes or around posts and is automatically tensioned as it passes back through the unique push-fit Gripple Tensioner. It is easily pulled tight by hand and slack can be taken up by pulling more wire through. The Gripple system will support up to 100kg (220lbs) of load. There is no metal at all so nothing to rust.


The kit consists of 50m (165ft) of nylon trellis wire, 10 tensioners and 10 vine eyes.

Black Mulberry Tree 'Chelsea'This very old variety (syn. 'King James I'), originates from a tree that existed in the Chelsea Physic Garden (formerly Swan Walk) during the reign of King James I. During the second world war the last remaining tree was removed to make way for an air raid shelter but cuttings were taken first, ensuring that this magnificent variety lived on for future generations. The tree crops early in its life. Plant in a sunny, well drained site with a deep loam soil. The tree is approximately 90-120cm (3-4ft) tall on despatch.Buy Now

(image for) Raspberry Beetle Trap
£26.95 inc. p&pRaspberry Beetle TrapRaspberry Beetle is a serious pest of raspberries and sometimes blackberries and loganberries. The maggots burrow into the berries to feed on the plug and often go undetected until the fruit is picked. These innovative funnel traps should be placed in the garden in the spring, 4-6 weeks before the first flowers appear. The funnel trap is designed so that adult beetles, attracted by the incorporated attractant lure and colour of the cross vanes (simulating a giant raspberry flower), fall into the funnel shaped catchment area down into the holding bucket below, which is filled with soapy water to prevent them from escaping.Buy Now
