Description
Brighten up your garden or greenhouse with this Tree of Life Trellis! We design, make and hand-finish all our metal artworks to be functional, look beautiful, and endure a lifetime! And this heavy duty garden trellis is no exception. It is 36″ Tall by 12″ Wide, constructed of 1/8″ Thick Steel, and oven-cured with our black powder coat for a strong, resilient finish that can withstand the elements!
We have store-bought trellises, but they always seem to bend and bow, plus they are usually pretty bland. With this one, we start with 1/8″ thick steel and then cut and weld in square tubing to add even more strength and reinforcement on the outer legs. For large pots, or gardens, this trellis can handle your roses, climbing vines, tomatoes and other vegetables.
Does Thickness Matter? YES! But it can be confusing because a lot of ads say “heavy duty,” “thick,” or “very durable,” but those are just words. Some ads will tell you it is a particular gauge, but if you are like us, these approaches make us feel like a goat looking at a watch – – pretty confused! So in this listing we use 1/8″ thick metal. Let’s put that in terms of the thicknesses of commonly used coins:

Let’s put that in terms of the thicknesses of commonly used coins:
1/8″ = .125″ = 11 Gauge = Thicker than a Quarter and a Dime Stacked on Top of Each Other (2.4% Thicker). It is 250% thicker than 18 Gauge and 60% thicker than 14 Gauge.
5/64″ = .078″ = 14 Gauge = Barely Thicker than a Nickel (1.6% thicker).
1/20″ = .05″ = 18 Gauge = Almost as Thick as a Dime (it is 6% short)
