A quality greenhouse will considerably extend your growing season. You can be doing great gardening well after the first cold fingers of winter frosts appear and well before the last cold snaps of spring.
The second reason is that you can take advantage of the delights and offers on display at garden centres in early spring. These are often too vulnerable to be put out in soil until the killing grip of frost has ended. It is not possible to insulate every bedding plant with fleece or mulch, but if you hesitate too long in the season the best plants will have gone. Greenhouses afford the perfect solution, giving you an environment for steadily acclimatising plants to the weather conditions before planting out. Of course your favorite sensitive plants can be safely over-wintered.
