The outdoor trellis is installed in the home garden to support the growth of plants against the wall. Trellis is made of lightweight wood and is durable to withstand different climatic conditions. They can also be made of wrought iron, synthetics, or fishing wire. Trellises help to add aesthetic value to a property, both residential homes and commercial spaces.
