Trellis is a latticework that helps support and display vines and climbing plants. They are either attached to a wall or can be freestanding in a backyard or garden. On the other hand, arbours include trellises in their structure. They act as arches that create a tunnel or entrance to your garden or a part of the garden. As the vines and climbing plants weave around the lattice, it can create a beautiful natural archway.
What are the different styles of trellis and arbours?
Canadian Tire offers a range of trellises and arbours to suit any style of garden. There are classic garden arbours, arbours with gates, modern screens with built-in accessories like plants, and trellis fences, all with varying designs.
What size trellis or arbours do I need?
Choosing a size depends on the size of your yard or garden. For smaller gardens, you’ll want a small arbour that can still fit a tall person and is wide enough for a small group to walk through at the same time. An arbour should be about 3-4 feet wide and 7-8 feet tall. Trellises can either be decorative or act as a fence or enclosure. For enclosures, ensure that they are tall enough to serve their purpose.
