If you’re in an area where you regularly get high winds, you might be worried about buying a trellis. Although you should select a trellis carefully, don’t let high winds put you off. Choose a heavy-duty trellis to stand up to the elements. Cheap wood trellises can be flimsy, so look for a trellis made from thicker wood or consider metal options. Since vinyl trellises are lightweight, they tend to blow over easily in windy conditions. To secure your trellis, either stake it deeply into the ground, or anchor it to a sturdy fence, wall, or other structure.
