What to grow over my AWFUL greenhouse.......

[warmsummersday]

I hate it, it's right in the middle of the garden, old silvery frame with glass windows. One side is covered but really need to cover it with plants that will grow up the sides and over the top. Any ideas please? I had thought of growing sunflowers up one side.

You want mile-a-minute - otherwise known as Russian vine I think - you can almost watch it growing

why don't you just take it down if you don't like it???/

[warmsummersday]

I would love to take it down but it's quite big and I wouldn't know where to start.

You could offer it on freecycle to anyone who will dismantle and remove it for you!

[toomanyballs]

put it on ebay and get the buyer to dismantle it.

that's a great idea WW.

If you grow something up the side of it it won't be much good as a greenhouse as it won't let the light in.

Where are you? I am currently looking for a 2nd hand greenhouse. Might be able to take it off your hands...

I'd have it but I have no room! Deffo try ebay or freecycle, or get a Man&Van in.

Training a plant over it will cause more problems than solving them - because you'll then have to sort out the broken glass and have a non-giveawayable greenhouse to boot.
