    First time for me for about 50 years, but I'd forgotten how nasty it is. Especially if you can't get the sting out!

    I've never been stung either, neither have my children (apart from 1 wasp and that wasn't in my garden) I've been growing flowering plants for 8 years or more

        I too was worried about anything which would need canes but couldn't it work with out the canes?
        Could it work using string around them and fixing the string to the legs of the trampoline, i.e. Just one row of beans enclosed with string back and front to support the beans?

        The first year of veg growing on a budget (40yrs ago!! ) all I had were 4 sticks and four rows of broad beans. So used a stick at the four corners and strong string to make a square enclosure.and along each row.

        Admitted a bit of messing about , but it worked , I had no problems and lots of broad beans !!!!!
