Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The Primrose Premier Trellis can be installed in several ways:
- Against a Wall or Fence: Attach the trellis directly using screws or nails. Ensure the fixings are appropriate for the wall material.
- With Posts: Use posts (not included) to create a freestanding structure. Bury the posts in the ground or use post supports.
- On a Shed: Similar to wall mounting, attach the trellis to the shed using appropriate fixings.
Compatibility
The trellis is compatible with various climbing plants. Ensure the plants you choose are suitable for your local climate and have appropriate support systems if necessary.
Care
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the trellis with mild soapy water to remove dirt and debris.
- Maintenance: Inspect the trellis annually for any signs of damage or wear. Touch up any scratches or imperfections with a suitable wood stain or sealant.
- Preservation: To extend the lifespan, consider applying a wood treatment every few years, following the manufacturer's instructions. This will help protect the wood from the elements and prevent rotting.
