In the greenhouse, your beloved flowers and plants can enjoy the gentle "comfort" of winter sunlight.

For flower enthusiasts who have a small courtyard or terrace, it’s common to grow quite a few plants. In such cases, protecting these plants from frost becomes the top priority. Worried that your beloved flowers and greenery might freeze to death?

Actually, all you need to do is choose the right greenhouse, and your plants will easily survive the winter without any stress. In fact, some flowers can even continue growing—or even bloom—inside the greenhouse, bringing you an unexpected touch of delight during the colder months. As for the size of the greenhouse, it can be tailored to suit your specific plants. If your greenery is mostly small and compact, such as succulents, you might opt for one of our many petite-sized greenhouses.

If you're growing taller plants like bougainvillea, it’s best to opt for structures such as tomato greenhouses or arched greenhouses. The placement of the greenhouse also matters—ideally, it should be set up in a spot that receives ample sunlight and is sheltered from strong winds. Plenty of sunlight helps raise the temperature inside the greenhouse, boosting the plants' frost resistance. Moreover, during winter, when daylight is limited, many flowers and plants require sufficient light to thrive. As for wind protection, this prevents gusts from damaging the greenhouse and ensures your plants can safely survive the colder months. Additionally, you should choose a location that’s slightly elevated, avoiding areas where rainwater or melting snow might cause waterlogging.

A greenhouse can be set up in the yard or on the patio, allowing you to bring in delicate plants that are sensitive to frost. However, it’s crucial to remember to open the windows for ventilation during the day—ideally for a short period—to prevent the enclosed space from becoming stuffy and humid around the clock. If the plastic covering remains sealed for too long without letting in fresh air, the plants inside may easily suffer from suffocation. This is especially important during the day when sunlight is strong and temperatures tend to rise. If you notice yellowing leaves on your plants inside the greenhouse—especially if the discoloration isn’t deep—it’s likely they’re being trapped in an overly confined environment. In such cases, make sure to boost ventilation. Typically, you can leave the greenhouse vents open during milder daytime hours, but once nighttime temperatures drop, seal it completely to protect the plants from the cold.

When the outdoor temperature is relatively low—say, when it drops below freezing—it's crucial to pay close attention to ventilation in your greenhouse. Simply open a small gap in the window to allow fresh air to gently circulate, preventing frost damage to your plants. If the temperature is extremely cold, move the plants closest to the ventilation opening away from the source of airflow, placing them farther back instead. Once ventilation is complete, carefully return them to their original positions. Inside the greenhouse, your cherished flowers and greenery won’t just be shielded from harsh winter winds—they’ll also bask in the gentle, soothing warmth of the winter sun. As winter gives way to spring, you can rest assured that these vibrant plants will reward you with even greater beauty and delight.
