Tapestries are special lattice-type devices designed to support plants that have curly stems. Each type of such structures has a specific purpose. In particular, there is a species that is used to create support for trees, as well as small specimens for lashes of cucumbers, which increases productivity. Today, a trellis with your own hands can be made of any kind and without much labor. Such elements help gardeners to give their plots an interesting style, as well as easily hide all kinds of flaws in the area. A wooden trellis helps gardeners divide the plot into zones. It should be noted that the appearance of such a lattice is not of particular interest, so it is best to mask it with abundant vegetation.
Tapestries appeared in Russia in the 8th century, when the Grand Dukes used supporting structures to support grapes, which, as you know, needs support. Trellis predecessors were also used for other plants (hops, roses). Over time, garden workers came to the conclusion that the tapestry is made with their own hands without the high cost of effort and energy.
Most often, in the manufacture of trellis, a metal base or wood is used. Materials such as concrete, plastic, vine and twine are also used. The mass of the gratings can be large or small, which depends on the purpose. The lattices intended for decoration of garden plots are notable for their low weight and grace. At the same time, a heavy massive trellis is relied on for the supporting goal, it is quite possible to make any type of gratings with your own hands.
The proportionality of the trellis can be applied both widespread and thought out your own. It is important to know that in the manufacturing process of wooden grates, the material must be thoroughly soaked with a disinfectant. The height is calculated taking into account the correct installation of the bars, which must be buried in the ground to a depth of half a meter. It is quite easy to make a trellis with your own hands, which will serve as a support for flowers, while it is important to try to create the most elegant design.
Tapestry to support the flower bush is made on the basis of measurements, after which the rails are fastened together. Surplus is removed by cutting off excess wood. First, they make a frame, fasten the corners with the help of metal building corners (to avoid distortions). It is necessary to strive to create square or diamond-shaped cells measuring 10x10 cm. Flowers do not need massive supports, while a heavy vine may require a more stable trellis.
Any trellises for climbing plants should be created taking into account the external design of the territory. In the center of the garden, it is better not to resort to the installation of massive, uninteresting, albeit solid structures. To fasten the structure in the ground, a solution of a mixture of concrete, crushed stone and sand should be used. Previously, the bars that will be buried in the ground must be treated with an antiseptic solution.
