Common features of arbors,<br />

pergolas, and trellises<br />

• Traditional arbors usually have latticework structure along the sides to support the<br />

vines as they grow and a ladder structure along the top. The classic or standard arbor<br />

usually has a rounded top but flat top arbors are also available. Arbors can also<br />

incorporate gates or benches, which look quite attractive when trained with your<br />

favorite climbers. There is quite a variety out there, so you just need to decide what<br />

style you like and what will look good in your garden.<br />

• Pergolas are larger and usually more substantial than arbors and can be used to<br />

cover a large patio or deck. Posts are located in the corners and at regular intervals<br />

to support the roof. The roof is usually parallel beams or lattice structure sitting on<br />

perpendicular beams. Unlike an arbor, pergola doesn’t have lattice sides and the<br />

plant or vines are trained up the side of the posts and then grow along the top to<br />

provide privacy and shade.<br />

• Trellises are usually latticework structures that are mounted on walls or posts that<br />

support your climbers as they grow. Like arbors and pergolas they provide more<br />

room for your vines to grow. They can also be mounted between posts to provide a<br />

screen. This is a nice accent to provide privacy and shade. You can also add to the<br />

trellis as you vine grows. On the side of our house I started with one, 1’ by 6’ trellis<br />

and as the clematis grew I added more trellises.<br />
