Shame you could nt get this in a perenial one instead of having to reseed

18 Jul, 2009

 

mmm would be convienient would'nt it..lol because this one does grow far better if started off in toilet rolls in the greenhouse...

19 Jul, 2009

 

lol where theres muck theres money wish I had a green house I bought a plastic one once and the neighbours were jealous even though they were not gardeners and their kids slashed it all tipped my plants out so I left a message one day smile your on camera thank you they never came again lol

how awful.... sounds like you have neighbours from hell Morgana. do they have access to your garden? the greenhouse i have is polycarbonate, which is nearly as good as glass...some prefer it, but a little cheaper to buy... maybe give that a go,,, far more robust than a plastic one.

21 Jul, 2009

 

Yes they do all they had to do is climb the fence or gate, thanks for the idea of a polycarbonate one sounds good I will look around see if they have one for disabled people.

22 Jul, 2009

 

I am sure they will do Morgana... they do pretty much the same shapes and sizes as you can get in glass now days... just much cheaper and safer... which would be good.... the other alterantive is a cold frame, or little lean to, or cupbord type thingy,,, if you know what i mean, i have seen them advertised, easy to keep and they also come in polycarbinate...best bet is to have a look through the catalogues..

22 Jul, 2009

 

I don't have catalogues. but will look around the shops there is one here called range I ll see what they do in the line of these

22 Jul, 2009

 

we have a range, not sure you will get it there, B & Q may be a better bet... or even better just type 'greenhouses' in your search engine and look online.. mine was bought on line...

22 Jul, 2009

 

Thanks for that Majeekahead.

22 Jul, 2009

 

Thanks I will look
