ADDITIONAL GREENHOUSE


Getting five trays mainly of Conophytums was the final motivation to get an additional greenhouse. The plan is to concentrate on seed raising and cuttings.


One of the trays.
The shed had to be moved.



Gone.



But undergrowth had to be cleared and trees cut back.




Base to be laid.



Arrives.



Secondhand so will need a clean!
