Re: [Fwd: new pergola/arbor]

I know that experience. Gathering seeds can get you strange looks... like you're not quite right.

The building where I work, they have huge I-beams put together like a
pergola...with old wysteria vines hanging off of them. Beautiful. People here think I'm nuts cause they always see me out there collecting the seeds, 
or seed pods.....

Hey Theresa, If you
made it out of very heavy structural steel, you
could have a wisteria attempt
to destroy it.  The fight would be
something to see.  Rich, dodging hail,
tornados, torrential rains, and
floods in Z-5

I have an arbor, http://tinyurl.com/4xaf7w
a shelter of vines or

branches or of latticework covered with

climbing shrubs or vines



A trellis is more 2 dementional, a frame of latticework used as a

screen

or as a support for climbing plants

What exactly is the difference between a pergola and an arbor? or a



trellis for that matter?


Anyway, pics of my new one are here.  Very

happy with how it came out.

The contractor made it exactly as I'd wanted.
