| I would like an arbor or pergola over my sidewalk leading to my back yard. Could you show me a picture of yours? Was it a kit, or did you build it? Thanks. |

| Here's a pic of my arbor. It is ugly as sin- which should be a clue right there that I made it myself, lol. It's just used to to support my golden hops vine, so it serves its purpose. CMK |

| Nasturtiums (Tall climbing Mix) on the arbor, dahlias on the side.

South alley gate in late May:  Same gate/arbour from the back in late June:  I designed the gate/arbour and had someone build it for me. |

| Beautiful examples...all of them. |

| My DH built this arbor a few years ago. The photo is from May 2012 and shows the arbor before we planted a Wisteria 'Amethyst Falls' on the right side. A 'Rebecca' and a 'Candida' Clematis are on the left side.

| Molie, I am curious as to how high up your "Rebecca" reaches on your wonderful arbor. |
|
| @Rouge: by October Rebecca made it to the top of the lattice and Candid reached the top piece of the arbor. Actually, looking again at this photo again, I can see the tiny Wisteria we planted on the right --- kind of on a tripod of sticks. By late fall it had crossed over a few feet onto the top piece. So hopefully the Clematis and Wisteria will meet this year. |
