Trellis Design

Dynamic and living, a trellis design brings spice and dimension to your landscaping vision.

The Basics Trellis design invites climbing vines and roses to grab on and grow. Which trellis design is right for you is a matter of preference. Here's how a few models stand out. The Wall Panel: A flat trellis design to support thick climbing plants. Topped with sweeping arches or fanning out from a slender bottom, wall panels exhibit the classic trellis design. The Obelisk: A three dimensional trellis design for larger yards, the obelisk brings a statuesque feature to your landscaping. The Planter Box: Grow flowers on your deck with this trellis design. The box holds the soil, and a panel or obelisk gives plants a ladder to climb. A beautiful choice for the lawn as well.

Material Matters
Many materials go into trellis design styles, and deciding which material best suits your needs may be challenging. Wood, iron, copper, or vinyl have great advantages in trellis design. It comes down to what you prefer.

• Wood: Trellis design typically uses a hardy, resilient wood such as western red cedar that can naturally resist moisture and insects.
