Abstract
A plant support for providing support to the branches of a growing plant such as a tomato plant. The plant support comprises a plurality of vertical supports connected or welded to a top horizontal support leaving a remaining open side. The open side of the plant support can be completely or partially closed by integral interconnecting structure of the plant support or by separate structure and/or flexible cord, tape, wire, netting, etc. The construction allows for little or no tapering of the vertical supports in combination with side loading of other units for nesting purposes.
