FAQs
What are the dimensions of the trellis when fully expanded?
The specific model is 1.8m high and 0.3m wide when fully collapsed. When expanded, the width can vary significantly based on how far you extend it, up to approximately 1.8 meters, while maintaining its 0.3m collapsed width for height.
What are the approximate hole sizes in the trellis?
As willow is a natural product, the hole dimensions will vary. As a guide, the holes are typically between 0.5cm and 1cm in size.
Does the trellis come with screws for mounting?
No, screws for mounting are not included. You will need to provide appropriate screws for attaching the trellis to your chosen surface (wall, fence, etc.).
Can this trellis be used indoors?
While it can be used indoors, it is designed and treated for outdoor use. Indoor use may lead to faster weathering or potential marking of surfaces if not carefully managed.
How long will the willow trellis last?
With proper care and placement, and considering it's a natural product, the trellis can last for several seasons. Applying a wood sealant can help extend its lifespan.
What kind of plants is this trellis best suited for?
It is ideal for most common climbing plants such as roses, clematis, jasmine, honeysuckle, and even some smaller vegetable plants like beans.
Troubleshooting
Trellis is unstable when expanded
Ensure the trellis is expanded to a stable width and consider using additional fixings to secure it to a wall, fence, or the ground.
Plants are not attaching to the trellis
Gently guide the plant's tendrils onto the willow structure. For some plants, this may take time. Ensure the plant is healthy and has sufficient light and water.
Willow appears to be weathering or fading
This is a natural process for willow exposed to the elements. To maintain appearance, you can apply a clear, natural wood sealant annually. However, this does not affect the structural integrity.
