Trellis

I am building a small trellis for my patio. Actually, I am building it for red bean vine and morning glory vine, which are impatiently growing by the inch in pots. So, though I was inspired by the practical advantages of the plants' beauty and a privacy barrier between my property and the one next door, I am really working for the plants. They will be able to fulfill their natural urges to climb, produce seeds and propagate their species. Birds and bees will also be well served. (I am hoping for a hummingbird.) What a wonderful illustration of ecology in the human-dominated urban world.
