Tapestry in the country, how to make your own hands, useful tips

Curly plants have long enjoyed the lovers of the exquisite decor of the garden plot and the adjacent territory. They grow quickly enough, they look extraordinary, so they often participate in the formation of flower gardens, gardens and arbors. Knowing the characteristics of growth and development of these plant species, it becomes clear that without supporting supports, they will not develop properly.

Varieties of supports for climbing plants

All variants of the supports can be divided into two types:

1. Naturally formed can represent stone blocks, the crown part of trees, shrubs and other fragments spontaneously formed by nature.
2. Artificial props, that is, props made with their own hands, in turn, are subdivided into a number of subspecies:

• for plantations in a single form - frames and lattices of metal or wood
• for decorating vertical surfaces - wall grilles and grids.

Small architectural structures, such as gazebos, arches, trellises and others, are usually erected from building materials.

With the help of any of the types of the above-described supports, you can not only organize a reliable support for climbing plants, but also:

• obscure the structure or hide only part of it,
• reduce access to ultraviolet rays,
• to dispel strong gusts of wind,
• to emphasize the guests' attention to a certain part of the infield, more comfortable and attractive.

Supports for climbing plants

Above the garden alley can be constructed an excellent support in the form of an arch braided with grapes. For this, arcs of metal are set across the alley, at a distance of about 1 meter from each other. The ends of the bars are concreted in dug holes. In the intervals between the rods, the horizontal bars are welded with crossbeams carrying the functions of an additional support for the plants.

After planting the cuttings, after a while the arcs will become a solid support for the climbing grapes.

Such kind of supports will look very interesting and not ordinary. After the grapes are thoroughly expanded and inside the alley a hotbed of coolness is formed. Here you can set up benches and a small table, thus creating a kind of a place to relax.

Also, the support in the form of a conical tower braided with some kind of vine, installed, for example, on the terrace, will not be bad.

Conical supports are made mainly of metal rods. In the middle of the support you need to make a fortification. The reinforcement at the bottom of the structure will add to the stability tower.

On the role of tapestry - an excellent support and element of the decor of the countryside

When there is a desire to disguise any part of the structure, you can use the design of the called trellis. When setting up trellises, it is necessary to push off from the fact that it should not be closer than 10 centimeters from the wall. Therefore, with fasteners, you will need to use spacers.

The greens, which will curl along the trellises, will create a kind of colorful carpet and picturesquely decorate the unattractive gray surface of the wall. Tapestries are also called trelyazhami, they look the same - the design in the form of lattices. Mount them in an upright position. They can be a support for any kind of curly green.

Tapestries can be of different shapes, made by original sketches, they, in addition to the supports, can also serve as a decorative element. Homeland trellis is considered to be England. Even in the XVIII century tapestry, as a decorative element of decor, firmly occupied one of the first places in the design of the gardens of the country's top officials. To date, tapestry like many other elements of small architecture, create an impressive and unique decor of the infield.

Types of trellis

Tapestries are divided into two main types:

• one-plane
• two-plane.

Single-plane trellises (partitions, fences, lattices and the like) will provide normal growth to bushes and climbing plants of medium-sized plots. If there is a large area for planting, fast growing plants are planted and two-plane trellises are used. This is the best option for the exploitation of the land area, which, in addition to everything, makes it possible to grow plants of regular shape.

walled trellises and ways of fixing

In addition to this there is a kind of tapestry called walled. They can be either fixed to the wall surface, or located independently. Wall hangers in addition to the support for plants, decorate the unsightly walls of various rooms. The main advantage of this design is rigidity and strength. In other words, there is no need to design an additional frame for solidity.

Before fixing the trellis to the surface of the wall, wood blocks with a minimum cross-section of 5 centimeters are driven into it. The presence of hammered bars provides a normal movement of air between the wall and the grate. The most productive method of fastening the trellis is to drive hooks into the wall and to grip the grilles on them. Only in this case, with the onset of the slightest need, the tapestry can be unhindered to remove.

trellises located separately

With trellises located apart, the situation is slightly different.

For their reliability and strength, additional fastening in the form of a frame is required. Without a frame, with a more or less strong gust of wind, the tapestry can fall, break and, most unpleasantly, with its fall cause irreparable damage to plants.

Tapestry for climbing plants with their own hands

Experts advise: before the production of trellis approximately estimate which mass of plants will be on them. This weight directly affects the material that will be needed to make the frame. The most simple variant of manufacturing by hand is a trellis made of wood.

To implement such a project, you will need to purchase a planed beam. If there is a possibility and desire, then the bar can be made by hand, for example from boards. So, stand-alone trellis own hands is made as follows. First of all, the frame is made.

Proceeding from the fact that the trellis made of wood is often made in the form of a rectangle, you must try to withstand the same size of the opposite sides of the structure. Not compliance will entail a bias and significantly reduce the service life. Between each other the bars are fastened with screws or nails. Even a stand-alone trellis is made with legs.

They will be a reliable support for the entire structure. The next stage of production is the nailing of slats. How exactly they will be nailed (horizontally, diagonally or vertically) - depends only on the personal desires of the owner. Fastening of the rods in length or across - the process is not complicated and understandable. Experts argue that the most catchy version of the racking is the fastening along the diagonal. Here it is most important to determine the desired angle and fix all racks at the same distance from each other and keep the degree of the angle for all the details.

After all the ends of the slats have been nailed on one side of the frame, it is turned over and the other ends fastened, but in the reverse order, without forgetting the degree of the angle. After finishing work with the slats, proceed to fixing the support legs. The legs should preferably be made of a metal corner, but not in any case from wood. A tree is a material subjected to decomposition processes from the influence of moisture. Means of waterproofing here will not help. In order to attach the structure to the metal legs, it will be sufficient to drill holes in the metal and bolt to the trellis.

The final stage of production is painting. Many people are of the opinion that this process is necessary. The opinion is quite logical and justified: the design will be on the street and constantly exposed to the influence of natural phenomena. To protect the tree from deformation and produce staining. In addition to nature, the life of a wooden product can be affected by insects that eat and live in a tree. To combat them, there are special means of coverage. What exactly does the coloring: varnish or paint and what kind of color - it's a purely individual matter.

Tapestry for the grapes with his own hands in the country

Grapes - the plant is curly, with delicious useful berries of which make jam, jams, wine, add to various cosmetics and make them oils. Grapes in the first years of life do not really need trellis, it is enough and ordinary pegs. But in a few years, in order to ensure a normal growth of the plant, you will need to erect a trellis.

Tapestry needs grapes literally like air. After all, thanks to the trellis, the vine is evenly placed and does not interfere with the growth of neighboring shoots, it receives without any problem access to air currents and such necessary sun rays. Design the vine plantations in such a way that the rows formed by grown grapes in no way obscure each other. And also the gap between the rows should be at least 1 meter.

For the personal arrangement of trellises on the plot of land, a single-plane variant is quite suitable. The main advantages of such structures are rightfully considered to be:

• ease of manufacture
• practicality of using and caring for a plant
• identical ripening of clusters
• the ability to plant seedlings of other plants in interstitial space.

You can make trellises for grapes from building materials:

• wooden posts
• asbestos-cement pipes
• metal pipes
• metal corner.

The height of the trellis can be calculated as follows: 0.5-0.7 m of the pillars should be buried in the ground, the part above the ground should rise by 1.7-2.0 m. Hence the conclusion: the poles for construction must have a length of at least 2.5 meter. If desired, to support the grapes, you can build a two-plane trellis. But we must immediately take into account: a two-plane trellis will require much more space for installation than a single-plane one.

The two-plane variant assumes a mandatory distance between the rows of at least 3 meters. For the design of horizontal jumpers, both a single-plane and two-plane trellis, an aluminum or copper wire with a diameter of at least 3-4 mm is suitable.

Tapestry for roses from plastic pipes and fittings

Since the rose is the queen of flowers, it is fitting for her to decorate the trellis in such a way that not only the flower, but also the architectural form created by her own hands for her support becomes the decoration of the suburban area. To make the trellis look more attractive, you should choose a more refined material, for example, you can stop on the armature and plastic pipes.

The construction process starts from the measurement and marking of the material. When marking to the desired height of the trellis, it is necessary to add a length to which each of its vertically placed elements will be buried in the ground. Having determined the dimensions and selecting the radius of bending in the plastic pipe, insert the reinforcement and give it a conceived shape.

To create a trellis for roses it is required to make two identical fragments of a design. Next, the prepared fragments are placed in the selected location. Be sure to check the parallelism of the installation of the elements. After installing the base, you will need to make horizontal bridges - they will serve as ribs for the construction and at the same time will participate in supporting flowering branches.

This design of the trellis for roses will seem mildly complicated, but it will cope with its functions perfectly.
