What distinguishes a pergola from an arbor? Sages have debated the difference since the days of ancient Greece and Rome, but what's unquestioned is that these columned open shelters—all the rage at the turn of the 20th century for Colonial Revival gardens and Arts & Crafts houses alike—are a timeless addition to any landscape. In a world full of plastic fences and lampposts, the wood pergolas from Vixen Hill stand out for their authentic design and construction. Made of western red cedar, the pre-engineered pergolas can be assembled in a day and come in two roof options: barrel and arbor. For more information, visit www.vixenhill.com or call 800-423-2766.
