Arbors For All
PHOTOGRAPH BY ROCHE Under a wistaria arbor—beauty, shade, comfort. Arbors For All Carefree "summer houses" made of vines and lattice, they add a new dimension to outdoor living BY JOHN BRIMER AN ARBOR MAY be a pleasant, shady framework with ripening grapes overhead, a trellis of climbing roses, or simply an attractive display of architectural woodwork. In any of its shapes and sizes, it adds a new dimension to your home and life. It is a secluded bower for hot summer afternoons, a pattern of light and shade in the evening, an open-air dining room for every meal. There are many types of vines to knit around an arbor. Fragrant wistaria—pink, white, or lavender—will grow to gargantuan proportions. The bittersweet vine produces brilliant orange pods in autumn. White lacelike clematis is a daintier climber, as are the perennial sweet pea and the delicate canary-bird flower. The classic grape arbor offers the sensuous smell of grapes late in the summer, and the taste of them if you want to reach out and pluck dessert off the vine. On lower fence arbors, tomatoes and cucumbers provide beauty and food. Continued 30 Suburbia Today, April 1961
