Standard Our flagship model and
thousands are now in use. Many users consider it to be a viable alternative to the ubiquitous 8' x 6' "walk-in" greenhouse. You can raise 2,000 seedlings in this model and it's the best choice for fruiting plants (tomatoes, strawberries, melons, etc). It's also a great place in which to over-winter geraniums and fuchsias. For a modest input of heat you can also grow winter salads. |

Mini Great for smaller spaces
and is particularly suited to use on roof-gardens and on very
exposed sites (it is extraordinarily storm-proof). The enclosed volume is around half that of the Standard, but you will still find abundant space in which to raise all the seedlings you need in a small garden, and there are several varieties of the smaller "bush" tomatoes that do well. The Mini shows off collections of alpines and cacti to marvellous effect and is also popular with cooks as a great place in which to raise herbs |

Micro Our newest model. It
was introduced after we received several pleas from flat-dwellers
whose only "garden" is often a balcony several floors
above ground level! Designed to the same specification as our larger models, the Micro's popularity has far exceeded our expectations. Seedlings, herbs and collections of alpines and cacti all flourish within the small glass pyramid, and you can revive ailing houseplants in it too. Supplied fully assembled and ready to use. |
