Vitavia Venus Greenhouse

Vitavia Venus Greenhouse

The Vitavia Venus Greenhouse is everything that a keen gardener could wish for in a greenhouse that “does what it says on the tin”, and more ! A greenhouse is a purchase that many gardeners can agonize over for weeks or even months, such is the choice available. However, most gardeners are looking for something solid that will last them years and years whilst being pleasing to the eye, after all you’ll have to look at it every day !

The Vitavia Venus really does fit the bill on all counts. It has a simple, solid design that will withstand the worst of our delightful British weather and looks smart and functional. The Venus is a 6ft wide greenhouse (6ft across the gable ends) that is available in silver or green.

Vitavia greenhouse frames, well the silver ones anyway are anodized. Anodizing is a process that leaves the frames extremely shiny and this is how they remain as anodizing stops aluminium from dulling and going a nasty grey colour over time. Of course if silver isn’t for you go for a Venus in green.

Vitavia Venus Greenhouse Glazing Options

The Venus is available in a choice of either Horticultural Glass, Toughened Safety Glass or Twin Wall Polycarbonate. Horticultural glass is the cheapest and most popular option generally but it’s not ideal if you’ve a young family or live in a windy spot as it’s quite delicate and if it breaks it breaks into dangerous shards. Toughened glass is probably the ideal greenhouse glazing for UK gardeners as it is heavy, thick and highly resistant to heavy wind and the weight of snow sitting on it. Polycarbonate is the default choice for gardeners with small families and educational uses as it won’t smash and certainly isn’t heavy at all making it very safe indeed.

Take a closer look. This video is a brief walk around a Venus 8×6 in Silver, on a rather dull English day !

The Vitavia Venus Greenhouse makes a superb allotment greenhouse as it’s simple yet solid design will stand up to harsh weather without any maintenance  due to the built in roof and corner bracing that keeps the greenhouse rigid in the harshest wind, rain and snow.

Palram Harmony Silver Greenhouse

Palram Harmony Standard Features:

  • High headroon at eaves and ridge ( 6ft 8″ Ridge)
  • Opening Hinged Door
  • Crystal Clear Polycarbonate Glazing
  • Gutter, Roof Vent and Galvanized Steel Base Included
  • 5 Year Warranty

Palram Harmony Green Greenhouse


The Harmony greenhouse is available in silver or green and in a number of practical sizes: 6×4, 6×6, 8×6 and 6×10

The great features of the Harmony are the outward opening door rather than a regular sliding door found on most greenhouses which when open is secured in the open position by a clever little magnet that sticks to the metal base, clever ! There’s also a door latch to secure the door when shut which will stop it opening in high winds, a major cause of greenhouse damage and even destruction !

Probably the best feature of all though is the way in which the glazing fits into the greenhouse. Rather than the regular method using glazing clips which can pop out, the glazing here just slides into channels within the aluminium frame. For a greenhouse of this price this is a very clever feature indeed.
