Set of Six Panacea 83280 Rustic Wire Garden Cloches, 20" H Each

Love these cloches! Sturdy, arrived well packed. Love the color because it blends in well with the garden. Keeps the deer off the nice new foliage that they love to munch on. Goog length on the stakes so they stay in place. Have ordered twice. Highly recommend!

I’ve tried several brands of wire garden cloches, which I mainly use to quickly protect native tree seedlings I find on my ranch. The finish of these makes them look cool. The longer wires at the base help them stay in place, too.Photo: one of the cloches from this set protecting a volunteer California buckeye seedling coming up near its momma.

These are decorative and effective (they really do look nice in the flower bed), but they’re over-priced and of mediocre quality. Seems like they shouldn’t cost more than half of what we paid, which should still be a high mark-up for the seller.

I bought these to keep the critters (mostly rabbits) from destroying my seedlings and small plants, and they have been very effective. Rabbits will eat seedlings of plants that they won't touch when they're larger (i.e. French marigolds) and I had a hard time getting anything established in the beds before using these. For plants that the rabbits will eat that remain small, I leave them in place. For such plants that grow larger, I take them off once the plants max out the space. I find the metal legs very useful; they anchor the cloches well without needing garden staples. I highly recommend these.

Very useful to protect plants from deer and other critters. I have ordered these for a couple of years and they are still holding up.

These are ornamental and very useful to protect young plants from all our deer snd rabbits.

We planted several new baby blueberry bushes along our fence. They started out 6" high and had grown to almost 18", and then some deer got to them overnight and took them back down to 6". We bought these covers and placed them over each small bush to see if we could save them. The prongs went easily into the soil (one had a single slightly bent prong from shipping, but it didn't impact the use).After several weeks, our bushes are back to their growing height and we'll keep them covered as long as we can to let them get established before they become snacks again. The frames let rain and light in fine and we could probably keep even them in place to protect the base of the plant, if we trained the limbs to grow out the holes, but we're hoping to free the bushes and buy liquid deer deterrent once they're bigger. The light brown color of the frames blends in to the background, so they don't really stand out unless you're looking for them.These are very sturdy and I expect we'll be using them again for baby plants for several springs when we need some protection.

I have had other plant covers like this in the past. These are different. I love that they have little stakes that allow me to press the cover securely in the ground. This is important because my weed wacking maniac garden helper moves the non secure ones around and wacks new plants. They are tall, which allows for plants to grow.I wish they had taller ones and wider ones for my other plants
