Looking for ideas on how to support patty pan squash. First time growing it and I am running out of space. Don’t want to use a pole. Something more like waist high so I can trail it around. Maybe like a chicken wire laundry basket. Or maybe someone here has experience.

MWH: I did something like this one year, but I directed along some 4 ft rabbit fencing set at an angle up and over the edge of a fence. I have been thinking about what do do this year with my limited space and I may try this!

Here you go! This shows Zucchini which is pretty close!

Do a search for "Growing squash vertically" and see what else you get!
