Put a post in each hole, and add a bag of cement (after mixing) When completely dry, a day or two you can add the lattice. the lattice is usually 4' x 8'.
Put in pressure treated fence posts to form a rectangle so that lattice can be nailed to it, paint them white. Nail on lattice. Build a gate, if needed by making a form with pressure treated 2x4s and nailing lattice to them. Make sure hinges are strong enough to hold the gate.
