The open iron framework gives climbing plants multiple points for training and support. The right plant depends on your climate, sun exposure, and the mature size of the vine, but this trellis works especially well with ornamental climbers that benefit from vertical structure.

The Steeple Bells Trellis works particularly well where you want to introduce height without installing a wide screen or large garden structure. Its narrow footprint makes it easy to position among established plantings or use as a focal point in a more compact bed.

A substantial iron trellis contributes to the garden even when it is not covered in foliage. During spring and summer, the lattice becomes a framework for flowers and vines. In fall and winter, the Steeple Bells silhouette continues to add vertical structure and architectural interest.

• Spring: guide emerging shoots and new vines onto the framework.
• Summer: enjoy climbing flowers and foliage at full growth.
• Fall: allow ornamental vines and seed heads to add seasonal texture.
• Winter: the iron framework remains a decorative garden element after foliage is gone.

The Steeple Bells Trellis is designed for freestanding installation in soil. Two integrated ground spikes extend below the trellis and help anchor the structure in a garden bed or landscape area.

For best results, install the trellis in firm soil and check that it stands straight before training plants onto the framework. Soil conditions vary, so additional stabilization may be appropriate in unusually loose soil or highly exposed locations.

The trellis ships in three pieces and requires minimal assembly before installation.

Construction: Heavy-duty iron gives the Steeple Bells Trellis the substantial feel and strength expected from an architectural garden structure.

Finish: The iron is finished in a charcoal brown powder coat accented with a hand-applied black faux finish, creating depth and a softer appearance than a flat single-color surface.
