Sunflower Garden Trellis–Decorative Good Even Without Plants

16 April 2009

A garden trellis with roses or flowering vines crawling up its face looks attractive, but in the fall and winter when everything dies back, that same trellis can look quite bare. In anticipation of the off season, you might consider a decorative trellis that offers a cheerful mien whether it has anything growing on it or not.

This colorful set of sunflower and trellis panels certainly fits that description.

It features “hand-painted steel petals and leaves in a decorative steel frame.” You can buy the set in pieces ($70 for a plain trellis and $85 for the sunflower panel) and use them separately or combine two or more pieces to create an expansive trellis for your garden plants to grow up.

The pieces come with a “foldout foot” at the base, which means the panels can stand freely and don’t necessarily have to be mounted to a wall.
