I use a variety of trellises I've made out of livestock fence panels. They can be bought for about $16 at McCoys or other farm and ranch supply stores. They are 52 inches in width and 16 feet in length. I use bolt cutters to clip them into three long strips which I bend to form an arch that is usually 18 inches wide and arched open to about 4 or 5 feet and 6 or 7 feet tall.

I also have welded a few triangular obelisks out of them as well as staircase looking trellises. They are made of galvanized steel so they be left in place all year around as they won't rust or fall apart. They also tend to blend into the background when nothing is growing on them :o)

Here's a 'stairway' trellis photographed against my garage door so you can see what it looks like.
