Parametric Plant Clip XL — Stake & Stem Holder

Parametric Plant Clip XL — Stake & Stem Holder

This version of my plant clip allows you to use a cable tie on both the rod side and / or the plant side for even greater stability.

A fully parametric clip that securely attaches plant stems to garden rods. Whether you're supporting peppers, tomatoes or tying back climbing roses — just dial in your dimensions and print a clip that fits perfectly every time.

No more fighting with wire ties or soft clips that don't hold their shape. This clip wraps firmly around both the stake and the stem with an adjustable gap between them, keeping the plant upright without constricting growth.
