What is a "arbor"?

An arbor is a small, outdoor structure made of vertical posts with a framework, often covered with climbing plants like vines or flowers. It is typically used in gardens or along pathways to create a shaded or decorative area. Arbors can serve as a focal point in a garden or as an entrance to a garden or patio. They are often made of wood, metal, or other durable materials and provide support for plants while adding an elegant, natural element to outdoor spaces. Some arbors may include seating or be used to support flowers and vines.
