Conservatory


Conservatory

The tree in the right of the photo is a Robinia 'Frisia' (False Acacia Tree), it's a bit prone to frost and can get mauled in the winter. It's a late starter but once it gets underway it is a beauty and gives well needed shade for the conservatory.

Hi Joseph yes it is lovely in the conservatory, but it can get way to hot in there for plants even in the winter. In the summer the floor can get too hot to stand on with your bare feet. A bit silly of us to build a south facing conservatory ;D
