Great video, hope the fence is coming along well and that jasmine is giving your garden a nice fragrant aroma.
Thanks Simon - after years of wondering why I wasn't getting anywhere with the plastic covered stuff from B&Q and Homebase, watching your video and buying the kit from GSProducts I finally cracked it! Shame the internet wasn't around 30 years ago when I first strung a wire for a grapevine but this time replacing the stretched green wires with proper tension wires worked perfectly and almost as quickly as your obvious expert demo showed. Only thing is in the year since you made this video the £40-or-so cost has risen somewhat, so a 50m kit cost over £60 including postage - but to get such excellent results so effortlessly it was worth every penny!
A great video, thank you, Simon. I wanted to know how to do this before purchasing a kit, and now I can do the job with confidence.
Thanks Simon. Just what I was looking for. Really helpful video 🙂
What a lovely video - thank you so much! Very clear and concise instructions - exactly what I was looking for!
Thank you Simon, great video
Great video! Thank you, really helpful.
Brilliant- thank you
Very helpful thank you!
it's super easy😀 you haven't seen my lack of diy skills
Thank you very informative
Really helpful.
Damn - I've got H type concrete posts. I'm disinclined to drill into them! Thank you for the video!
Great video. Very clear. Can you give us the name of the kit you got from the net please?
Useful! Thanks
Thanks😍
Really helpful, thank you. Have you got a pic or a vid of that fence with all the climbing plants years later now? Sarah
Happy pourne garden
thanks sir
Looks great what website did you get the kit from please
We need an update with a picture of how this evergreen jasmine has grown!! Please🙏 😬
Thanks Simon can I check did you place turnbuckle on one side or both please. Also have you a link to the kit you bought by any chance please?
I was unable to find the rope clamp that you used in your video. The ones I found need crimping tool and don't have Allen key hold to tide up. I was wondering if you could provide the name of your rope clam?
Very nice video. Easy to follow.. Can you please let me know which tool you used to mark the hole for screw-in vine eyes? Did you say Bravo? believe it was an awl? I have evergreen Jasmine for which I was not sure if I could use the typical green wire many had suggested.
The tool is called a bradawl.
Pronounced “braddle”
Hi there thanks for the video. Do you have a link to the kit you purchased? Also, what would you suggest fixing to if I have concrete posts? Was thinking to use wall plugs!
It was from GS Products in the UK - you can buy the kit or the individual bits - wire, clamps, tighteners etc. Good luck

any tips for if the posts are on the other side of the fence?
Yes, that is rope clamp. Hard to find that model though.
Hello, will those vines stick to the fence or stay on the wires?
Where do you connect the Tesla coil?
Where I can a fenice trellis kit?
I have a question regarding training Jasmine to climb a tree . Can Jasmine live alongside , or in fact growing around a tree , without killing the tree?
I'm on a boat mooring , which has ltd possibilities for having some large trellis , or structure , on which to grown the plants up against , or around . So my options are a few large trees , which I figure would be perfect for a flowing plant like this to use .
I mean is there a limit to height before a plant hinders the tree ??Any replies welcome .I'm UK based
What length vine eye did you use?
Is it one long wire through every fence panel say 3 panels one turnbuckle. I thought every fence post needed a turnbuckle.
Would you please let me know how much it cost to do this? Where do you get the materials, and what materials required? Thanks
Hi Tiffy I purchased the products from GS Products in the uk..they sell the individual wires, vine eye screws and turnbuckles or you can simply buy a kit. Good luck!
This is so relevant and useful, and very well explained. Thank you for a wonderful video. This is the right way to hang a vine support and not a Mickey Mouse solution.
Please do not add music to any DIY, demo, tour, cooking, or wildlife video. it hurts the ears and drowns the voice.
I can’t find the kit you used.
How do you fix wire to concrete posts 150mm wide. 7th March 2023

Hi Simon, the fence I wish to attach trellis wires to is around 9m in length and on a gentle incline from left to right. I was thinking to install 2 level lengths, changing height at a post mid way to compensate for the incline. Or would you just measure the same height from the base and install the trellis wire following the same incline of the fence?
Is that called a "rope clamp"?
Can you not just use.. Eyelets and wire and tighten by twisting the.. Surely that will be strong enough?
Could you please give me the diameter of your galvanized wire rope?

Thanks for the video. But the music makes it difficult to hear what you're saying.
My fence posts are concrete 😮
Those eye bolts have no strength when you mount theme 90 degrees to the cable. You will bend them. An eye bolt needs to go into material parallel to the direction (in line) to the wires. I give you a fail altogether. Why do people that do not understand the basics think they can tell others how? if you want to know how it is done watch the videos of grape growers and other vining fruit growers do the job.
Absolute overkill
