There are many benefits of owning a greenhouse.
Here are the top ten reasons that our customers have shared with us.
1.
Saves you money - I remember one gentleman who called one time and said he spent $2,000 every year on new plants for his yard and garden.
Now, I will admit that seems a little extreme, but at that cost it wouldn't take any time at all to have a greenhouse pay for itself.
2.
Allows you to start the seeds you choose - I know that my husband spends hours poring over seed catalogs every year, just looking for any new varieties of vegetables or flowers.
I am sure there are a lot of other people like him.
3.
Gives you hours of enjoyment - I know that I spend more hours in my greenhouse than I really need to.
It is just such a pleasant place to be.
4.
Protects your plants in the winter - You can overwinter many of your plants in your greenhouse.
This is a much better option than storing them in your garage or dining room.
5.
Makes you the envy of all of your gardening friends and neighbors - I can't tell you how many times I have displayed at garden shows and had people tell me that they have always dreamed of owning their own greenhouse.
6.
Is a peaceful retreat - I have known many people who have carved out a small seating area in their greenhouse.
They just go out there and sit and relax.
7.
Allows you to propagate your favorite plants - You can take cuttings and root new plants for yourself or even to give to friends as gifts.
Just be sure that you are not propagating any plants that are trademark protected or patented.
This is against the law.
8.
Protects and nurtures your prize winning orchids - The greenhouse is the perfect place to create the environment that your orchids desire.
9.
May be profitable - Many people will grow herbs, flowers or vegetables in their greenhouse to sell at local farmers markets.
10.
Gives you the ability to grow your own vegetables - Quite possible the best reason of them all.
What is better than a fresh tomato in the winter.
Whichever of these benefits fits your needs, you are sure to be happy owning your own greenhouse.
