Greenhouse
A home green house is a good investment for the serious gardener. A greenhouse can be used to start seeds in the early spring, propagate cuttings in the summer and over winter nursery stock.

A green house need not be an expensive structure. The greenhouse can be built rather inexpensively using off the shelf items from a hardware store. Construction plastic can be used and discarded after one season. Heat can be supplied from a portable gas or electric heater. If the green house is used only during the late winter period, heat needs are minimal, depending upon what type of plants are needed.

If your flower or vegetable is large the garden greenhouse will pay for itself after a couple of seasons. You will also have many more choices for plants that you can grow as there are an astounding number of varieties of flower and vegetable seed available from seed companies.

Summer cuttings of your favorite perennials, shrubs, groundcovers and trees can also be started in the greenhouse. You can have as many of your favorite plants as you want when you have the means to propagate your own stock. Plant propagation is easy to learn and fun to practice. Expensive equipment is not needed.
