We built one out of dogwood branches leading into our wooded paths - I have roses growing up mine - well somewhat - we should've chosen a better spot! It was built on my fathers' birthday after he passed away. I agree - love the arbor!spookydragonflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05972127156968863571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4470126441925344618.post-29463325925167813352008-05-18T19:33:00.000-04:002008-05-18T19:33:00.000-04:00What a great arbor!

Want to steal your idea if okay.<BR/><BR/>My first season here in Colo Mts. I did make a big arbor out of pine posts that have smaller branch cross posts and a curved top of willow branches. So far, so good in that it's still standing & I'm no carpenter (unfortunately neither is my husband!).<BR/><BR/>I've been trying so hard for 2 gardening seasons now to get clematis or any vine to grow up it. Gardening here is a struggle in that all plants must be deer resistant and make do with not quite enough sun. Clematis grow but only to about 3' tall at most so far. Even tried the invasive trumptet vine I wouldn't dare plant in Texas...even it won't invade me here! Any ideas for vines for my existing arbor & the one I hope to build like yours?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4470126441925344618.post-63608406641904496972008-04-21T23:24:00.000-04:002008-04-21T23:24:00.000-04:00garden girl~You're so sweet to call it determinati...garden girl~You're so sweet to call it determination.

You're a more determined gardener than me - I give up more easily on things that don't grow for me - not necessarily a good thing. Determination is an admirable quality I could use more of, and not just in the garden :ogarden girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13284047851881823280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4470126441925344618.post-35758959359753459702008-04-21T21:13:00.000-04:002008-04-21T21:13:00.000-04:00Giddy~It seems our contribution to Earth Day...The...Giddy~It seems our contribution to Earth Day...The Trellis!
