Overview

The Parkside 8x12 gives you the classic English garden house look with 96 sq ft to grow in. A steep 12/12 Cape Cod roof, decorative ridge cresting and finials, and single panes of 3 mm tempered glass make it as handsome as it is practical.

It is made in Canada by BC Greenhouse Builders, who have been building greenhouses for more than 70 years. The heavy aircraft-grade aluminum frame has a baked-on enamel finish that resists corrosion and never needs painting, and it is rated for 32 lbs per sq ft of snow and 85 MPH winds, with an upgrade to 110 psf and 140 MPH available.

Two automatic roof windows open when it gets hot inside, and a heavy-duty lockable storm door keeps your plants secure. Choose all glass, or glass walls with a polycarbonate roof, in black, white, brown or green.

Our tip: Base panels mean you don't need a full foundation; a single row of 4x4s is enough to stabilize it.

    Free curbside freight

    Delivery is by LTL motor freight on an 18-wheeler. Let us know about tight roads or low wires so we can plan ahead.
