Architecture meets horticulture. For those of us who believe a plant should have boundaries—beautiful, geometric, and highly productive boundaries—the Espalar Starter Kit is your entry ticket into the obsessive world of espalier.

Traditionally the secret of grand European estates, espaliering is the art of training woody plants into two-dimensional masterpieces. It’s not just about the aesthetic (though, let’s be honest, it looks incredible); it’s about tactical growth. By pinning your fruit trees or ornamentals to masonry, you’re trapping heat, extending the growing season, and squeezing a whole orchard’s worth of productivity out of a space the size of a fence.

This kit is a cost-effective introduction to the craft, designed for surface mounting on timber, concrete, or brick. It’s the professional’s choice for creating living privacy screens or functional garden décor. We’ve included everything you need to establish your framework—from high-tension 316 stainless steel wire that handles heavy loads with ease, to the specialised cutters. You just provide the poles and the vision.

The Inventory:

  • 30m of 2mm '316' Grade Stainless Steel Wire (for serious tension)
  • 4 Anchors in capsules & 4 Anchor Platforms
  • 2 Tension Caps & 2 End Caps
  • 10 Radial Wire Guides
  • Wire Cutters & Hex Driver
  • 20x 40mm Hex head screws
  • 8x 25mm Hex head screws

Whether you’re disciplining a fruit tree or masking a bland wall with climbing greenery, this is the DIY solution for the gardener who appreciates high-tension drama and perfectly straight lines.

“I wish I had discovered this years ago. Made the perfect gift for the man who ‘has it all’. Beautifully crafted, I was pleasantly surprised how heavy and sharp it was. Would buy again.”

“I love the easy access both sides, the height was sufficient to grown runner beans on a tall mesh frame and it’s very easy to put together but may need two people to lift the net over the framework. Just love it.”

I have one and it is a game changer. Enough pockets to totally fit all the tools I wanted to carry. It's great to have them all in one handy place when I'm working in the garden instead of floating around in the bottom of the wheelbarrow.”

“Where has this tool been all my life? It is awesome, works brilliantly, even with older dried out flax. Literally like a hot knife through butter."
