Cold Frame

Mini Green House

Giant Terrarium

Known as a cold frame, this little greenhouse was traditionally used to start seeds outside. Starting seeds outside aka winter sowing is a wonderful way to start seeds. They aren't as susceptible to damping off and grow to be big and strong. 

I have found many other uses for these handy, little greenhouses. They can be used to grow lettuce well into the fall and even winter, or to get a head start in the spring. 

I also enjoy putting my favorite orchids, kokedama, ferns, and African violets on a little vacation. They love the humidity in these green houses and really are happy and healthy after their little vacations.
