Good morning Ento,

very nice insight into the greenhouse!
I could see more of it. . .
Your Greenhouse follows the Ligurian mountains? Very interesting!


Thanks für sharing!

K.W.

What a wonderful sight, ento. And the seedlings, lovely too.

I live in Liguria, 4 km from the sea and 80 meters above sea level.

Two of my greenhouses

Very nice garden and greenhouse ento. Is the last photo you posted inside this greenhouse? It looks from that photo that the roof slopes down. I can't see how you walk between the cacti for care and watering and love.

Amazing. Just out of curiosity, how long does it take for you to water your collection?

I water the plants once a month, beginning in late March / early April and I finish at the end of October.
To water the plants every month I need an afternoon

Good morning Ento,

thank You again for the views inside Your greenhouse!
I like this kind of photos very much.

When I see Your GH, I guess You don´t have frost in winter!?
Or do You have another house for Your plant´s in winter?


Best wishes

The plants do not move from where they are. There are years with the frost, the snow, but the plants do not receive water from the end of October and therefore do not suffer damage, because they are dry.

Snow in February 2013

Good morning Ento,


thank you for answering my many curious questions!



Best wishes

P.S. I am so often been in Savona. On the way from Alba to Cecina, your greenhouse unfortunately I have never seen. . .
