I love to sit in my little greenhouse in the evening - it's the blue hour. The sky is a deep, rich blue but the lamp brightens up the inside and its so peaceful.
I recently moved this very old green shelf into the back of the greenhouse. We salvaged it over 30 years ago from a local 100+ year old form house that was going to be demolished. I love the scallops. It reminds me of the British Auricula Plant Theatres. Someone wondered if I might paint it to match the potting benches but I like the mix of multiple shades of green out there - just like nature.
This little greenhouse was an inexpensive Amazon purchase a few years ago and it has been worth every penny and more. I had the old bricks, we used scrap lumber to build the benches, one at a time until the configuration held maximum plants for overwintering and then everything but the plants is thrifted. I could spend hours out there. It's a little "escape' just a few feet from my backdoor!
