Have you grown lilies, dahlias, peonies or other tall plants, only to have them flop over and either have the stems break or the flowers get ruined sitting on the ground? I have a couple of good solutions for you.

Spirals are multi-stem plant supports. Pick the height you want and then just turn the spiral wire counterclockwise and engulf the stems. Attach the stakes, and the plant is supported. After blooming, when the support isn’t needed, just untwist it. They are made from galvanized steel and can be used on peonies, delphiniums, verbena, lilies, rudbeckia, lupins, roses, foxgloves and many other plants.
