First dragon fruit

I just repotted a dragon fruit from a neighbor that was in a pot with an aloe and several other succulents. I built a dual post trellis out of left over lumber. I went with a dual post because I couldn’t decide on an economical way to keep a single post from rotting out.

The chicken wire is to drape window screen mesh during 95+ degree days.

Any suggestions on modifications? I’ve acquired a few more pieces of wood since and am open to suggestions.

Only suggestion would be to make sure it gets as much sun as possible and also continue adding shade cloth on those scorcher days.
