Some Plants Grow Vertically. Not all Trellises are Created Equally!
Want to grow cherry tomatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, peas, or melons? You’ll need to grow up! These plants need to climb.
When deciding what kind of trellis you need, think height and width! Height: you’d be surprised how tall vegetable plants can get. We recommend a trellis be at least 6’ tall. Width: plants need plenty of surface area so they can spread out and grow. Cramped plants are more disease prone and struggle to get pollinated adequately (which means they don’t produce food!).
Our trellises are designed with both beauty and function in mind. Each trellis is tall enough and strong enough to support any plant you would want to grow in the Houston garden. You can’t find trellises like ours online or at any local nursery or garden center.
Named after Houston native, Barbara Jordan, the Jordan Arch is our most popular arch. Circular steel tubing is gentle on plants secured to the frame.
Named after Amelia Earhart, our Amelia Arch makes a bold statement. The Amelia Arch provides ample space and surface area for plants to grow.
The Ruth Panel, named after Ruth Bader Ginsburg, offers a streamlined, compact way to grow vertically.
The Julia Obelisk, named after Julia Child, is a simple yet elegant way to grow vertically. Measuring over 7’ tall, the Julia can effortless host 4 full grown tomato plants.
Named after Kendra Scott, who graduated from Klein High School, the Kendra Obelisk is not only functional, it’s a work of art in the garden!
Named after the inspiring Maya Angelou whose books, poetry, and movies are as unforgettable as she is. The Maya Obelisk is perfect for small spaces (it’s petite), but it’s measures over 7’ tall. The Maya Obelisk is completely collapsible (see below) so it can store anywhere easily during times of the year when you don’t need as much vertical growing space.
Named after Ellen Ochoa, the first Hispanic woman to go into space and the first Hispanic director (and second female director) of the Johnson Space Center in Houston, the Ellen Obelisk is perfect for container gardens. Although shorter than our other obelisks, the Ellen Obelisk is still as sturdy.
