Do they have to stay in the greenhouse all the time GG?

Hi Waddy

These can all go out in the summer but some of the varieties like to stay in the greenhouse over winter , a little too tender , at Wisley gardens they are trialing out which are good for gardens in the UK

I assume you have glazed the greenhouse, the glass looks invisible, so clean.

Will you put shading paint on the glass?

No paint makes a right mess ...

I have used a green nylon netting which fixes in the groves with special plastic half bolts and comes down the roof half way so it will stop sun scorch on the toms but lets full sunshine in where the shelves are (if that makes sense)
I will put some new photos on of the inside of the greenhouse over the next weekend

Agree about the paint job. Netting shading sounds a good idea, but I'd probably get myself tangled in it, taking it down.
Ps you certainly don't need any shading this week!
