Nutopia Greenhouses are available in a range of sizes, plus you can choose your own Stain and Paint options, and add Garden Beds, a Potting Bench and a Automated Roof Vent. And because it it made of strong timber, you can also make your own additions eg benches, shelving, trellis, tool racks, shade house.

You can choose Macrocarpa Timber
Macrocarpa is one of the most naturally durable softwoods grown in NZ, and is resistant to insect and borer attack. It contains natural oils that give it the same treatment ratio as H3.2. Macrocarpa will weather to a beautiful soft silver grey.
