Definite sorts of garden vegetation, which grow in our gardens, need good tending and constant care. These can be tender flowers and plants that, for instance, were once brought to our latitudes from the south. Some flowers cannot bear up tiny water drops on the delicate leaves. Other flowers have to be sheltered against cold and snow; other sorts demand specific dampness and heat the whole year.
Plant lovers are able to supply those plants with all the required conditions merely with the service of greenhouses. Greenhouses are essential even for plantsmen who do not naturalise capricious herbs. Common cucumbers or simple tomatoes need orangery tending along with whimsical tropical vegetation.
Not all the existing greenhouses are identical. Of course, they may be more spacious or smaller, but apart from that, greenhouses vary depending on the sort of plants you want to place in them.
Tall and rather narrow greenhouses are perfect for vegetables which are going to crawl upon special louvers, while not that high and wider ones – for protection of flower beds.
It is quite possible to establish a greenhouse near your house wall. This kind of greenhouses can be named “a Lean To”. Providing this greenhouse is fixed to a wall of your house, the named wall may render some more heating to one side of your greenhouse, though it may become spoiled because of dampness, and there might be not enough sunlight inside the greenhouse. That's why it is more appropriate to locate such greenhouses on the lightest side of the building or fence.
For better results it's in certain cases advised to locate a greenhouse apart from any other buildings, this way it is able to have free light and air.
Modern greenhouses may appear to be a real adornment of your orchard due to their lovely design. Greenhouses can be made on aluminium or wooden frame, and the possible shapes may vary from the most regular construction of a common greenhouse to a copy of a crystal hall for your sophisticated hotbeds.
Due to crystal-clear glass panes, and thin frames, often painted with green colour, greenhouses may become well camouflaged on the background of the whole orchard. This kind of greenhouses cater your plants with all conditions they need – a lot of daylight entering through glass walls, thorough airing, the required level of wetness as well as a good aisle for a gardener to nurse all the plants.
There exist as well small greenhouses, called cold frames, which turn out to be a great solution for smaller plants and seedlings if you haven't got space for a larger greenhouse, or you just want to begin a growing season earlier. In case these smaller greenhouses are leaned to building walls and obtain plenty of sunlight, it is reasonable to establish a few beds in them and regularly have green vegetables even in autumn and winter.
In addition to this, retailers that sell greenhouses regularly provide a lot of other devices for your orchard, for example heaters, supporters and trellises for climbers, stands for pot plants in pots and flowers, etc.
