Here is a good definition…An arbor is a vertical structure in a landscape or garden that can provide shelter, shade, and especially privacy, as well as serving as the perfect accent piece.  It  blends in with the landscape and can separate different garden areas and direct traffic.  Its walls and roof consist of open framework to support colorful vines.

When you consider designing an arbor for your Houston area yard, strive to repeat the architectural details of your home.  This will help tie together the house with the landscape.  As far as height is concerned an arbor is eight to ten feet high.  This will allow plenty of room to walk under it and maintain the vines and plants growing overhead.

It really is an amazing addition to your property!  It is one of the many areas of landscaping expertise provided by Laird Landscaping.  Laird was voted #1 in Katy and proudly serves the Houston area with landscaping ideas to enhance your home.  They are excited to meet you and your property.  Just give ‘em a call at (281) 278-2795.
