ABSTRACT:
A wire clip for direct attachment to individual bricks of a masonry wall as a support and/or guide for climbing plants growing along the wall. The clip is a unitary wire member bent to the desired configuration and has a pair of opposite angular bent end formations and an intermediate outwardly projecting return bent formation which defines a loop when installed. The clip is slightly bowed and is spreadable so that the end formations engage opposite parallel longitudinal sides of an individual brick of the masonry wall with the clip disposed across the face thereof and the vine stem passing through the loop. Installation is effected by application of thumb pressure to the loop; disengagement can be effected by applying leverage thereto, all without any residual damage to the wall since installation does not involve digging into the brick or mortar.
