Virtually unbreakable, high impact resistant and flexible polycarbonate panels provide balanced growing conditions Paraffin heaters are cheap to buy - but they use a lot of fuel, are difficult to regulate and encourage condensation, which can increase humidity and the chance of plant diseases.

Our painted finished greenhouses come with a 10 Warranty against the durability of the painted finish. Our painted greenhouses are manufactured from Accoya timber which provides a preferential surface for paint application. Our painted greenhouses also benefit from the 25 guarantee against rot we provide with our Accoya timber greenhouse range. The Eco-paving internal floor sometimes fits comfortably inside the greenhouse with a few inches to spare. Sometimes it is overlength but it can be cut to fit. The finished floor is self draining and suitable for wheelbarrows and wheelchairs. Laying eco-paving directly on soil is not recommended. Eco-pavers can be laid on a layer of gravel or pea shingle if it is carefully compacted and levelled. Each paver should be fully supported.Hexagonal greenhouses and Octagonal greenhouses are unique, heavy-duty, standout structures built to withstand all weather conditions. Installed as a free-standing greenhouse or as a feature lobby they can transform your garden and look great all year round. In cold seasons and to grow certain plants, you might need to heat your greenhouse. Again, a number of options are open to you:

HEATING REQUIREMENTS: Heating requirements vary for several reasons. Location is one factor with more heating required in Scotland than in southern England and less heating required in a sheltered position. The design is also a factor. For example, dwarf walls improve the insulation and lean to greenhouses absorb warmth from the existing wall. Another factor is the materials used. Polycarbonate greenhouses retain heat better than glass and wooden greenhouses retain heat better than metal greenhouses. We recommend you to buy a bigger heater than you need - you can always turn it down.There are traditionally designed greenhouses but you may want rounded eaves, a T shape or dwarf wall. And what about features such as staging and shelving, rainwater collection kits, automatic vent openers, you’ll find that there is a noticeable difference in what each manufacturer offers as standard or optional. KeenOnGreen I hadn’t considered shelving and spare parts yet so that is definitely something to think about.

We offer a free installation service throughout the mainland UK (no hidden surcharge). We use our own in-house installation teams to deliver and install our greenhouses, giving you the reassurance and peace of mind that every effort will be made to ensure the highest standard of finish is achieved. In addition to mainland Great Britain, Palram also deliveroffshore to the Scottish Islands,Channel Islands, Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man. Unfortunately, there is no serviceto Northern Ireland. Distant Surcharge We’ve all seen square sheds and greenhouses, and the huge array of rectangular ones on the market. These are ideal for fitting into corners, and positioning along one side of a garden. However, they are traditional in nature, and you might be looking for something a bit different.

Summary:

You wouldn’t be the first to do this – indeed, lots of people have gone for one of these designs, and there are some good reasons for doing so, too. Let’s explore the perks of owning a more unusual garden building, not to mention the practical considerations that come along with them. Why are hexagonal/octagonal designs so popular? This Palram - Canopia Oasis Hexagonal greenhouse has a heavy duty powder coated Aluminium frame with high headroom for trellising and growing tall plants . Not Suitable for Windy or Exposed Positions

Here's why we think it's better for our customers to shop for a new greenhouse online over in a real store: Buttercupdays I think you are right, I need think a bit more about usage. I don’t think I will use it for overwintering plants (but never say never). I mainly would like to extend my veg growing season and grow more plants from seed. I had to put my tomato plants outside in early May this year due to space issue and they survived with lots of fleece and attention, but I do not want to go through that rollercoaster again. The only other place would be under a huge oak tree, and would involve taken my shed out. Not sure if there would be enough light but your point to consider climate change is spot on. You have three main choices here. Horticultural glass is the most common and is inexpensive. Toughened glass is a stronger alternative - and a safer one if you have children in the garden. And tougher still are polycarbonate panels, which reduce scorching by diffusing the sunlight. Access Ever wanted to grow your own roses or zucchini? Maybe add a stylish gazebo to your yard or turn that open patio into a year-round fine habitat? How about protecting your car from the elements or storing scattered gear in one safe, convenient shed?
