For a touch of romance in your landscape design, there’s nothing like installing a pergola.

Named after the term for “a projecting eave” in Italian, pergolas were widely popular in English gardens of the 18th and 19th centuries. They continue to be much loved today for their grace and elegance. This charming type of gazebo is ideal for supporting flowering vines like wisteria, grape vines, honeysuckle, and more. Festoon with some hanging pots and curtains, and pergolas can also provide privacy and shade from the elements on hot summer days. It’s the most classic way to add value and beauty to your home.
