A few years ago we were impressed by our friends Chester and Daniel's trellis for green beans. They made it simply from a section of heavy livestock fence from the farm store. Last winter we covered ours with plastic and used it as a sort of primitive hoop house. Our granddaughter Lillian dubbed it "Club Lilford" and posted a sign saying a password was required.
This summer I wanted to make sure the shelter had more shade than green beans could put out, so I planted some birdhouse gourds on the east wall. A few lawn chairs, some decorative red salvia in a pot, and a summer retreat is born. Plus we have a ton of green beans.
