Garden Trellises

Garden Trellises can be made of wood, vinyl, metal, or twigs. The one you choose, depends on what type of garden you have. Like this Short Diamond Finial Trellis,they can be a thing of beauty, used as a focal point, or they can be there simply to support the roses or other flowering vines. A trellis allows you to create various visual effects to the garden,by giving your plants support. You can place them in the center of the planting bed, tuck them into a corner, or even attach one to a building.

Your trellis can add height to the garden,either for balance or to compensate for the lack of tall trees or other vertical elements in the landscape.

They can fully or patially block unpleasant views. Line them up side-by-side for a dramatic display!

Experiment with materials, and find one thats just right for your garden!
