A trellis is a framework designed to support a climbing plant or plants such as ivy, grapevines, or sweet peas. A trellis attached to a roof or building exterior can also be called an arbor or pergola. Different types of trellises are available for an assortment of appropriate plants and locations.
A metal trellis may not be the best choice to accommodate a vining plant. The sun can make the metal structure hot enough to stunt the growth of certain plants. A garden trellis constructed of wood may be more beneficial for plants that are incapable of resisting cold, such as beans, sweet peas, and morning glory.
