Large enough to satisfy the aspirations of many gardeners, Swallow's Jay 6ft x 16ft potting shed offers a wonderful environment in which to grow a large variety of plants.
Although traditionally styled the Scandinavian timber has been heat treated to extract moisture and resin. The resultant ThermoWood® has a high resistance to warping and rot due to the fact that it no longer expands and contracts. In addition, no preservatives are required to extend their lifespan.
Staging stretches along one side as standard, ideally positioned for seedlings and potted plants to take advantage of the light that streams through 4mm toughened glass.
Also fitted as standard are two automatic roof vents, opening to control temperature and humidity even if you are on holiday. Two rear shelves offer extra storage space and one more shelf can be added optionally above the staging unit for even more potting area.
Also on the list of options is guttering so that you can recycle rainwater, experienced gardeners know that plants much prefer it to the tap variety.
Such an excellent package is even more remarkably priced if you consider that delivery and installation are also included in the price.
