What a cool idea with cages you can build up as you need them.

Here's pictures from today, 17 days later on May 6, 2020. Everybody is looking good. Limiting plants to 4 main leaders, one per upright.
There's two new plants, Lemon Boy and Yellow Pear. I accidentally cut the original Yellow Pear off at the base, so I got a new one.
Lemon Boy I couldn't find at the stores until later. You can't see the possible Super Sweet 100 volunteer plant, it's hidden behind the
regular Super Sweet 100.

Quite impressive, I love your setup.
The sweet 100 is a blast from the past for me. I should try the sweet 100 again, with limited space, I replaced with gardeners delight, maybe next year.

Things are still going good! Lemon Boy and Yellow Pear still lagging the others. They don't get as much sun.

I love your setup, your photos with each plant labeled, and that is an absolutely multiflora super sweet 100, setting lots of fruit too.

I quite agree. Your garden is wonderful and I love your photos. Those supports are genius and sturdy too. That Super Sweet 100 is special with it's multiflora blooms so be sure to save some seeds from that one. I bet many people around here would be happy to trade with you for some of them.

MissS - I generally don't save seeds. I've never had luck growing from seed and don't really have the space to do that.
However, if anyone wants some seeds from that plant, I'd be happy to provide them. LMK.

Your garden looks fantastic. Everything so healthy and robust. I love Aunt Ginny’s Purple and Momotaro.
Yellow pear must be biding it’s time before it leaps over that fence into the neighbors yard and devours it.

Yellow Pear and Lemon Boy are about 3-4 weeks behind the others. On the other side of the fence is an alley, so the neighbors are safe. I know what you mean though. Last years plant in the same spot grew over the 6 foot cage and cascaded about 4 feet down the other side of the fence.

Here's an update as of 6/19/2020
Couldn't get good overall pictures as I've posted before, so I did individual plants instead.
Cages have reached their zenith at 6 feet tall.
For some reason the Cherokee Purple plants don't seem to be growing as tall as the rest.
The Lemon Boy and Yellow Pear were planted a month after the others.
