I am beginning to warm to the idea but would appreciate some opinions from the group :-) kate We have a suburban backgarden and so space is limited and we have a 12x8 foot greenhouse which I think is better for confined spaces but is more expensive. If I had a big country patch, I would prefer a polytunnel and would prefer to have a whopping big one as I think it would be much cheaper that way (big poly tunnel much cheaper than huge greenhouse). ok, looks like I am outvoted; alright then, if I had a choice, I would choose a nice wooden greenhouse with a brick base, as long as it came with a small bloke to paint it every 2 years. Howya Father :-) My missus went and invested in a very nice bespoke pitched roof greenhouse ( with brick base) from Hartleys about 2 years ago. It is made from thick sections of aluminium and is a cream colour. No painting required and should long outlive her ( and me as well). It looks like its made from timber. Glad to see yer settling down at last! K Blessings Kevin my son; I am a changed man. I have finally made peace with all trolls and now wish nothing but calm intercourse on matters of a horticultural nature. I have invested in a heavy duty waterproof cassock for all work in my mixed borders. Des |
