Garden shelters have been part of gardens since the ancient Egyptians and, "the garden of Eden contains descriptions that correspond with some of the very ancient Egyptian gardens as well," says The Golden Scales website. Ancient peoples who could afford it, built pergolas or gazebos to enjoy their gardens. Garden structures are primarily to offer shade from the sun and support to climbing plants. Some types of garden structures include trellises, pergolas and gazebos.
Gazebo
Gazebos are garden structures with a covered roof to offer shade. "The earliest known gazebos or garden gazebos were in Egyptian gardens approximately 5,000 years ago, found in a garden plan which dates to about 1400 B.C.," according to Peter Jay, an Internet marketing professional for Amish Gazebo Shop. Typically, gazebo's rounded- or octagon-shaped structures have steps leading up to a viewing platform. Gazebo shelters are most effective when completely separated from the house. Jay says to "construct such a shelter in a private part of the garden to create the feeling that you are getting away from your daily world." The design of these types of structures can be completely independent of the landscape design surrounding your house to create this effect.
Pergola
The word "pergola" originated from the Latin term "pergula," describing a protecting eave. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a pergola as an arbor or trellis. It is described as "a structure usually consisting of parallel colonnades supporting an open roof of girders and cross rafters." Modern pergolas used today are made primarily of wood rather than stones or bricks as they were made historically. There are even kits that may be purchased at home improvement retailers to make creating garden pergola's easier. Not only do pergola's offer shade, but they support growing plants as well.
Trellis
Climbing plants need a trellis or other structure for support. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a trellis as latticework used to make a screen for shade and a supportive structure for climbing plants. Most gardeners use them for their climbing plants, such as grapes, roses and jasmine. According to GardenVisit.com, some of the most ancient examples of trellises are in the garden frescoes of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
