    Spent the last two weekends assembling one of two new greenhouses. I can honestly say I'm not looking forward to repeating the experience for greenhouse number two [emoji15]. We've assembled, we've disassembled, we've bodged and we've made do. This has literally been build with blood, sweat and tears ( mainly blood and tears!).

    This is an Elite, high eve greenhouse and I'll be used to house a Sarracenia collection.

            It may have cost you in sweat and tears Coolsox but you've made a good job of it. :dbgrtmb:

            Plastic would be no good to me @WeeTam, I'd be without a greenhouse in no time. I have toughened glass in mine which is heavier and the frame is bolted down on concrete. :)

              Very nice. Looks like a 6x10. What size is the other?

                  Hi Coolsox,

                  Well done.
                  That looks great :)
                  Wish I could have one but I just haven't got the room.
