HOW TO BUILD YOUR TRELLIS 
FOR PLANTING AS A HEDGE 
OR FENCE 
For end posts, drive 6-foot lengths of 2-inch 
galvanized pipe into the ground a foot deep. 
(Use longer pipes if you wish trees to grow 
more than 5 feet high.) Stretch 14-gauge 
galvanized wire between posts. Bottom wire 
should be same height as first serial branch 
of tree, all other wires 10 inches apart. When 
three or more trees are planted in a single 
row, additional posts may be used between 
every second tree to support wires. 
FOR PLANTING AGAINST 
BUILDING WALL 
Drive 34-inch galvanized pipes into the 
ground. On the top, screw on an oe re! 
6-inch nipple and flange. Fasten the flange 
to wall with screws. Stretch 14-gauge gal- 
vanized wire between pipes as in illustration 
at left. Plant about ten inches away from 
wall or foundation, never closer than six inches. 
AN INEXPENSIVE WALL TRELLIS 
This simple trellis is easily made with | 
6x8’ shelf brackets. Screw 6-inch arm of 
bracket to wall in line with the wire (hori- 
zontally). Stretch 14-gauge galvanized wire 
between brackets as shown in illustration.
