This Arch Trellis Taps Into the Vertical Garden Trend to Instantly Make Any Garden Feel Bigger Without Expanding Your Plot
Maximize planting space while creating a stunning visual display
While my dream garden consists of sprawling beds and lush meadows, I'm currently working with a much smaller space – but I'm still determined to make it feel charming.
The secret? Space-saving hacks that double as design features. Vego Garden's arched trellis system is my latest find. It's discounted in the Memorial Day Sale, and I think it's the perfect way to bring my most whimsical trellis ideas to life. (And it even happens to be on sale right now.)
Measuring 4.5ft across, this elegant arch can be configured to fit a wide range of Vego Garden beds. You can even attach multiple arches to one set of beds to create a spectacular tunnel. Simply confirm the size of your existing beds and pick the trellis length that matches your layout.
Why Trellis Arches Are the Ideal Addition to Any Garden
Precisely because my garden is lacking in square footage, I've found myself a little intimidated by the idea of adding an archway like this one. I was worried that it would dominate the space, ultimately making it feel cluttered rather than expertly styled.
While anyone familiar with small-space gardening will likely sympathize with this particular fear, I'm happy to report that a trellis arch can, in fact, have the opposite effect.
Draped in foliage and trailing blooms, an archway like this one is the foundation of vertical gardening. It can bring a welcome sense of drama and elegance to even the most compact yards, especially since it's totally customizable.
Naturally, I was drawn in by the opportunity to pick the height of my trellis arch, which is a lifesaver since my garden is already filled with container plants, patio furniture and, of course, raised beds.
To me, modular beds are the best choice: they offer a brilliant combination of durability and style, with a design that allows you to pick the size, height and color that works best in your garden.
The Vego Garden extra tall 4-in-1 classic metal raised bed is my preferred small-space savior, though options like the Vego Garden L-shaped classic metal raised bed kit would be an equally brilliant addition to a patio or deck.
(And if you want to pick up an arched trellis and a set of raised beds at the same time, I'd opt for something like the Arlmont & Co raised garden bed trellis from Wayfair.)
Crafted from reinforced steel with a rust-resistant coating, Vego Garden's trellis doesn't just look the part; it's designed to be sturdy, weatherproof, and impressively durable.
Plus, I love that I can fix multiple arches onto Vego Garden beds to create a particularly breath-taking design feature.
A single archway is guaranteed to make an impact – and you can always go for a simpler option like this metal arch trellis from Walmart if you're looking for something budget-friendly – but a tunnel is the encapsulation of my most whimsical garden ideas.
