If you are a happy owner of a balcony and want to make it feel fresher, more like an outdoor space or even a garden but it seems that there’s literally no space, there’s still a way out: get a trellis. A trellis serves as both a functional support for climbing plants and a stunning visual element that adds depth and charm to any space, besides, it doesn’t take any floor space and can also double as a privacy screen if needed. Here are some tips to handle a trellis in your own balcony.
Consider Your Space
Start by considering the available space where you plan to install the trellis. Consider the size, shape, and orientation of the area. Take note of existing structures, such as walls or fences, that can serve as a backdrop for your trellis.

Determine The Location
Decide where you want to install the trellis. Trellises are placed against walls, but if you want, you may add a planter with a trellis. Consider the amount of sunlight and the plants you plan to grow on the trellis when choosing the location. If you are going to have artificial plants, it’s even easier: just grab a trellis and place it wherever you want.
