The Hortonova trellis doesn't hold up under our sun and/or temperatures. Two years and it's brittle and untrustworthy and making a plastic bits mess. I like the Nylon Trellis Netting sold by Johnnys (and others) -- easy to put up, take down and store, strong, and I have some that is still going strong after 10+ years. It does need to have a wire or strong twine strung through the top to help hold the weight of heavier produce. Don't know though (and would love to) where to find it at bargain prices.

Best wishes,

Karen

Marie,
Last time (2 years ago) I ordered Hortonova trellising, I found Specialty Ag Products had the best prices as compared to Peaceful Valley, Johnny's, and High Mowing. At the time it was $41.65 for a 4-foot by 328-foot roll. It's plastic not metal.
They are in Milford CT at 800-483-8889; Fallon is the name of the family that runs it.
Of course, I was able to eliminate shipping costs, which might diminish its thrift to you.
good luck,
