Walk-in Greenhouse
£29. 99 each

This excellent value greenhouse is great for the keen gardener to start growing plants or for use as a temporary greenhouse. It can be easily assembled in minutes and is made of strong tubular steel with a zip-up door.

Ideal for seed propagation, growing flowers and vegetables
Heavy-duty reinforced cover for long life
Dimensions: 143 x 73 x 195cm ( 4.6ftx2.4ftx6.4ft)

very very tempting for the back of the garden which is behind where the proper greenhouse would go its even got shelves. Might even allow for me to pop this up in the greenhouse over winter (when i get it) so i only have to heat a smaller area :)

very very very tempting and i am near an aldi on thursday :) hehe

Oh, that's rubbish.

I'd offer to get you one and send it to you but the cost of that would kinda negate the saving Doh!

Post by: winecap on April 25, 2012, 21:21:54: The question is, will they still be selling replacement covers next year? We have had a couple of different versions of this and both covers only lasted up to 2 years. The zips were first to go and then the plastic started splitting. I expect you can get a version which lasts much longer. I have a mini greenhouse with a plastic cover which has lasted 7 years now. The zips only lasted 5 though. Personally I wouldn't buy one of these again.
