    Anything! All types of flowers and plants can be grown in your polytunnel.
  • Where is the best place to put my polytunnel?
    Situate your polytunnel as near to your house as possible. Avoid tall trees on the south side and pick a nice sunny spot. If you have high winds then putting your tunnel near a wall can help too.
  • What can they be used for?
    Polytunnels were originally designed for use to nurture plants just as you would in a glasshouse. However, over recent years their uses have covered a multiple of customer requirements. Anything that requires protection from the elements, swimming pool covers, sheep shelters, play area for kids or perhaps an art studio are are just some of the ways people use our polytunnels.
