A Link-a-Bord Kit with Butterfly Netting will help keep your vulnerable home grown cabbages, broccoli and brussels sprouts free from butterflies and ravenous caterpillars thanks in the main to the the sheet of 7mm butterfly mesh netting.
Also lending a helping hand is the durable 95cm (37") high aluminium tubing and build-a-ball framework (which provides a brassica-friendly actual growing height of between 65-85cm) which is quick and easy to erect, dismantle and store.
Available in three popular sizes, the recycled plastic link-a-bord bed is the engine room of the set up and for plants which crave a deeper soil, simply add one of our 15cm deep Link-a-Bord Bed Kits! We've also got an Insect Mesh version of the Link-a-Bord Kit with Soft Butterfly Netting and for delicate plants that need extra weather protection, the Link-a-Bord and PVC Cloche combo is a must.

Product Reviews
The plant protection netting, which I am using in conjunction with a Link-a-Board bed purchased two years ago, is being used to protect a new strawberry 'plot' I am trying to establish. So far, so good! The netting is keeping birds off of the crop and our cats off of the bed. We've even managed to enjoy our own strawberries while watching Wimbledon on the television - it's almost like being there!
I lost all my winter cabbages last year due to Butterflies and the bad winter weather. The weather I can't do anything about but the netting kit will certainly take care of the Butterflies! Everything went together well and there was plenty of netting provided. I have a great crop of Brassicas in my raised bed. Thank you Harrod.
