I'm looking for a nice set up greenhouse for my patio. Something volatile and acceptable. My patio has a little small patch under the kitchen window opening. I've looked up and down it for days trying to figure what i could do with it. So I was thinking a greenhouse, that would touch the bottom of the kitchen window, if its necessary. If not I would be glad to hear my options. User Gallery Registered: 01/22/03 Posts: 167,165 Loc: Pvt.
