FAQs

What are the dimensions of the trellis?

The trellis typically measures 180cm in height and can extend to approximately 90cm or 60cm in width, depending on the specific model variant. It can also contract for easy storage.

Is this trellis suitable for large, heavy climbing plants?

While suitable for most climbing plants, very large or heavy varieties might require additional support structures or reinforcement for long-term stability.

Do I need to treat the willow?

No, the trellis is made from weather-resistant willow and is designed to be maintenance-free. It will naturally weather and develop a patina over time.

Can I paint or varnish the trellis?

While technically possible, painting or varnishing is not recommended as it will alter the natural aesthetic and may interfere with the willow's natural weathering process. The product is designed for its natural appearance.

How do I clean the trellis?

You can use a soft brush to remove any loose dirt or debris. Otherwise, no specific cleaning is required as it is designed for outdoor use and to withstand the elements.

What is the expected lifespan of the trellis?

Due to its durable, weather-resistant willow construction, the trellis is expected to last for several years, with its appearance naturally evolving over time.

Troubleshooting

Trellis feels unstable

Ensure the trellis is adequately secured to its anchor point (wall, fence, ground). For ground installation, ensure stakes are deeply embedded. Consider using additional ties or stakes for extra support, especially in windy areas.

Climbing plants are not adhering

Gently tie young plant stems to the trellis with soft garden twine to guide them. Once established, they will typically grip the willow themselves.

Trellis appearance changes significantly

The trellis is made from natural willow and is designed to weather. This change in appearance (darkening, slight softening) is natural and part of its aesthetic. No action is required unless you prefer to maintain a specific look, which is not the intended use.
