Benefits of buying a greenhouse from GardenSite
Whether constructed from aluminium or timber, our greenhouses will allow you to propagate a fabulous variety of plants, vegetables or fruit throughout the year, repaying your investment with a supply of home-grown produce in return! You really can't beat the taste and freshness of homegrown food and when it's cheap to produce it tastes even better.
Tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber and peas are some of the most popular salad and vegetable plants to grow in a greenhouse, and they grow relatively quickly before bearing their fruit and are low maintenance when it comes to pruning and cultivating. If you’re looking for more details on what can be grown in your new greenhouse, read our helpful guide for "what to grow in your greenhouse".

Should you buy a greenhouse online?
You may have already searched online for a local greenhouse shop or for 'greenhouses near me' in order to support a business within your area. But unfortunately, due to the size and bulky nature of greenhouses, it's very rare to be able to find any greenhouses for sale to view in person. If you're local to us in Birmingham, you're welcome to visit our greenhouse show site, otherwise you may be restricted to shopping for a greenhouse online. But not to fear, shopping online, even for something as large as a greenhouse is fast becoming normality, and there's actually a bunch of benefits to buying a greenhouse online versus in a brick and mortar store.
Here's why we think it's better for our customers to shop for a new greenhouse online over in a real store:
- Better prices! You can more easily shop around for the best price and compare greenhouse models. And as there's less costs involved for the retailer (no need to rent shop floor space etc), those savings are usually passed onto the customer.
- Better choice! Online greenhouse stores can offer more brands, sizes, models and greenhouse varieties compared to the limitations of a brick and mortar shop. With greenhouse brands being sourced from across the UK and worldwide to offer the best and largest range to gardeners.
- Better quality! Reputable online greenhouse sellers like ourselves only offer for sale greenhouses that we know and trust, having had long relationships with the manufacturer's behind the brands, and having tested and experienced each greenhouse in person.

See our guide: which greenhouse should I buy and why? which explains all about the different brands, features and options for all the greenhouse models we sell.
Can I replace my existing shed with a greenhouse and use that for both storage and growing?
Yes! If your garden only has space for one structure, you may be thinking that you don't have the room to accommodate a greenhouse if you already have a shed. However, that's where greenhouse combi sheds come into play. Potting sheds are also another name for these, and they offer a place to both grow and store in, giving a structure that combines both a shed and a greenhouse in one.
Combi sheds and potting sheds come in all different sizes and variations. Some can be ordered as a 50/50 split, others come with larger greenhouse partitions with smaller storage space, others comes with bigger shed partitions and smaller growing space - it all depends on whether you'd like more storage or a bigger greenhouse area. You can browse our range of potting sheds here.
