Category overview
Greenhouses & Cover
Greenhouses, cold frames, cloches and fleece that extend the season and protect tender plants from frost.
Protected growing lets you start earlier and finish later. A glazed greenhouse gives the most control, a cold frame hardens off seedlings, and lightweight cloches or horticultural fleece shield crops from a late frost or pigeons without a permanent structure.
What this category includes
Greenhouses
Glazed structures for the most control over heat and light.
Cold frames
Low boxes to harden off seedlings and raise early crops.
Cloches & tunnels
Portable covers for rows of young or tender plants.
Fleece & netting
Lightweight protection from frost, wind and pests.
How to choose
- Site for maximum light, sheltered from strong wind.
- Toughened glass or twin-wall polycarbonate hold heat and resist knocks.
- Roof and side vents (or an automatic opener) prevent summer overheating.
- A cold frame or cloche is a low-cost first step into protected growing.
