ABSTRACT:
Trellis wires tieing clips are used with pairs of spaced longitudinal trellis wires which are located to control the direction of growth and support of plant foliage of crops such as raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and grapes. One wire is the longitudinal reference trellis wire, and the other wire is the longitudinal gathering trellis wire. Each trellis wires tieing clip is made of a molded plastic having: resiliency and a retention of shape memory, and having the integral portions of a transverse elongated top body portion; a transverse elongated trellis wire receiving volume in the top body portion; a centered bottom entry to guide trellis wires into the transverse elongated trellis wire receiving volume; a right side arm depending at a wire guiding angle from the transverse elongated top body portion; and a left side arm depending at a wire guiding angle from the transverse elongated top body portion. The right side of the transverse elongated trellis wire receiving volume restrictively and frictionally positions the longitudinal reference trellis wire, whereby the trellis wires tieing clips remain positioned at a selected location for an extended time until intentionally relocated. The left side of the transverse elongated trellis wire receiving volume freely and slidably positions a the longitudinal gathering trellis wire. The trellis wires tieing clips are of an overall size with their right and left arms depending sufficiently at wire guiding angles, that a person wearing gloves easily manipulates them.
