Choose the Elegant Solution

When an extension is needed to your growing space, choose a handmade Glasshouse from Hartley Botanic’s extensive range to meet your needs with trademark grace and practicali­ty

-

Budding gardeners can sometimes find themselves wanting more space once they’ve started growing. Those first few trays of young seedlings in February quickly become hundreds of pots full of rapidly growing plants by April, all jostling for space inside.

Overcome this problem with careful planning and ruthless selection. Disregard any plants that are past their best and no longer thriving, and limit the numbers of seedlings you grow on to those you really need, composting the rest. When you begin the new growing season, think ahead and plan for required expansion so it doesn’t take you by surprise.

If your staging is still overcrowde­d, work up a priority list so that surplus seedlings can be planted out early or rehomed elsewhere. Tender plants are at risk if they are moved outdoors before the last frost, but could get by if the weather is kind. If you are still short of space, seriously consider extending your facilities.

The Hartley Botanic Heritage range can be extended. In Hartley’s Wisley Greenhouse, for example, you could add on a couple of extra ‘panes’ gaining nearly 1.5m extra length. Speak to the knowledgea­ble sales team for advice.
