Woohoo! Almost done: my greenhouse

I get to move 300+ plants tomorrow - mostly orchids and a HUGE fuchsia - because the balcony of my apartment is going to be jackhammered up (starting at 8am every weekday morning, yay) for about six months. I hope my house is habitable before then, but at least my plants have this to live in:

Confused. Did your apt complex allow you to build this on their property? riderinthestorm Oct 2012 #4

The greenhouse is at my house, which is being remodeled REP Oct 2012 #5

You have done a wonderful job on your greenhouse! It looks great. And big!

Your plants should be very happy in their new home.

Have a ball!

Why is your balcony taking 6 months to rebuild? That seems like an extraordinary amt of time?!

The apartment is where I live while the house is being worked on. Why is the work at the apartment going to take so long? Excellent question. I have no fucking idea, but the building across from me (same complex) took NINE months.
