Latticework is a type of structure made up of interwoven pieces of wood, metal, or other materials. It is commonly used in architecture and gardening. The term 'latticework' can refer to three different structures: LATH, TRELLIS, and ESPALIER. A LATH is a thin, narrow strip of material, usually wood, that is used to create a lattice-like structure. A TRELLIS is a framework of interwoven pieces of wood or metal that is used to support climbing plants. An ESPALIER is a type of TRELLIS that is specifically designed to train and support fruit trees. All three of these structures are examples of latticework.
