Greenhouses are great for extending the growing season as you have a degree of control over the environment. Warmer air and soil temperatures mean that you can start crops of earlier and still be enjoying the harvest when those plants left outside have long passed it. All the plants that make up this collection will thrive in the warmer conditions inside a greenhouse.
Suitable for growing in big pots and growbags in an average sized greenhouse.Add Sweet Peas to your order. Get 12 plants in 3 delicious dark colours for £7.99 - that's just 67p each
