  • New black greenhouse pics

    Here it is at last! My Simplicity Stramshall 6' x 10'.

    A few bits still to do such as fitting auto-openers and waterbutts.

    The paving was a killer, but the GH building and glazing was surprisingly not too difficult. The auto-openers have me bamboozled though!

    I am loving it and so are my wee plants!

    I love it. I have never seen a black greenhouse. It's very smart. I love the chair as well. Is that for rest and relaxation?

      If it is, it won't be long before some pots are balanced on there.


      Nice greenhouse

        Thank you. The chair was £1 in a jumble sale years ago - never found a place to put it until now Luckily it is foldable for when the tomatoes take over.

        The black is unusual - it was a clearance one from The Greenhouse People. Much cheaper than the green version. Don't know why! It will be much easier to touch up if the paint gets scratched.

          Very smart. I bet it doesn't stay so pristine for long

                  Liking it very much! I too have a snazzy chair in my new greenhouse, it's purpose..... sitting with a nice glass of wine at the end of the day relaxing and pondering over my potting, talking to my tomato's , praising my peas and generally coaxing all my veggies to grow.

                    I am so glad it isn't just me. I sometimes think if the neighbours were to overhear me it would confirm them in their suspicions!
                    If I injure a seedling I find myself apologising and when I pot them on it's usually a question of "there you are then, much more room so I expect you to grow!!"
                    I thought perhaps it was just me and Prince Charles!

                            ROTFL The exact same thought just went through my head


                            I've never seen a black greenhouse before, looks well cool

                              I like how you made room for a chair inside the greenhouse by lining your plants up on the outside.
