The problem is I had my arbor trimmed too low and I believe it is dead now.
Can the branches be cut so low that they will not grow back?

2It depends on what plant species you trimmed. In any case a photo will help. – Giacomo Catenazzi Mar 30 '18 at 16:03

There is no way one is able to cut TOO LOW, too close? Enough to kill a plant. Perhaps enhance infection, disrupt part of the vascular system. An arbor is a constructed architectural element like a fence or gate or screen in the landscape. Vines are usually grown on arbors, pergolas, screens...are you talking about pruning a vine on this arbor? Did you hire a professional or some land'scraper'? grins. Pictures, more information, please. – stormy May 7 '18 at 6:07

How long ago was it trimmed back? And did anything else happen that might have killed three? – greggles May 7 '18 at 19:37
Yes that is possible. It's like felling a tree.
Some tree species can resprout from roots or what little bark is left. Some can't. Here are some details: https://www.quora.com/Will-a-tree-grow-again-if-only-the-stump-is-left
