trellises

Garden lattice structures

Trellises is the plural of trellis, a framework of crossed strips—typically wood or metal—used to support climbing plants.

Gardeners train vines, roses, and vegetables up trellises to maximize space and sun exposure: The tomato plants grew up the trellises along the fence.

The verb trellis means to provide such support or to train plants on one.
