Arbors and Pergolas

A pergola is a garden feature forming a shaded walk or passageway of pillars that support cross beams and a sturdy open lattice, upon which woody vines are trained. It may also be part of a building, as protection for an open terrace. Pergolas provide a structure for growing plants but also as a shade area for outdoor spaces. Recently pergolas have become popular just for their asthetic look and are often found as a stand alone feature or focal point in a garden or outdoor living space.

An arbor is any shaded place for sitting in a garden. This can be accomplished through the use of trellises, pergolas or with the natural stucture of heartier climbing plants. Florida moderate climate allow us to build these structures year-round for your enjoyment.

All of the pergolas shown, were designed and built by Creations Custom Landscapes! As you can see, when blended with the right plantings and stonework, pergolas are a perfect addition to your garden!
