When my husband and I purchased our first and current home, my dream of establishing my very own garden from a blank canvas—tree and stump removal included—came to life.
It’s still a work in progress. I put geothermal tubes underneath, and it’s remained pretty stable in there for temperature most of the winter except when it was really chilly.
We extended our season and are experimenting with different plants to complement our outdoor garden. It's so nice to be able to grow year-round, and we're getting there as new greenhouse owners and gardeners.
I use it all year round. It's a fantastic place to start plants in the spring, and allows me to grow heat loving plants in a protected space. It looks fantastic in the corner of my garden, and I just love going in it!
I wasn’t able to finish installing one side as we are only there for a few weeks and I had other projects. But the quality of the greenhouse meant I could leave it somewhat unfinished over the winter without concern.
Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant,Artichoke, cantaloupe, watermelon, cucumber, squash, onion, Cauliflower, Broccoli, carrots, radish, beets. Everything grows so well in it.
We currently have a Mexician Key Lime, Meyer Lemon, and an Austrialian Finger Lime in the greenhouse year round. We overwinter four olive trees and a banana plant. And grow peppers, tomatoes, and cucumbers during the growing season.
