Has anyone seen/used this "trellis"

Ok...not REALLY a trellis but I couldn't think of a better name - brain remains MIA most the time. Found these at Wally World today...and thought hmmmm....for those of us with limited space...and bought TWO! Only run $5...I like that they can be taken down at the end of the season...that they're free-standing - so I can have a splash of color wherever I'd like. Sadly they are only about 5' tall and some of that, of course, will be lost when inserted in the ground. Sooo what do ya'll think?

Looks like a good idea! Let us know how you like it!

I used these last year for my tomato plants (hate those wire cages). They worked beautifully! Very sturdy.

Hmmmm....very good idea using them for climbing vines! I don't have alot of vertical space around my house (already taken up with trellis' and whatnot). I could stick one of these right in the middle of my flower beds and it would not stick out like a 'sore thumb'.

Thanks for such a great tip!
