The Tomato Barrel planting system provides both a planting container and built-in staking for plant support. It provides lightweight, strong support for tomatoes, beans, peas and other climbing plants and flowers. An easy-to-fill reservoir delivers water and nutrients from below, helping to avoid over or underwatering. The sturdy frame helps support the weight of the vines as they grow, allowing the plant to devote more energy to developing fruit - and preventing the fruit from falling off before its ripe.
