Where to place a greenhouse

Posted by dicon77 5 (My Page) on

Hello all. I definitely want a greenhouse, but I want it attached to my house. In one room of my house I have two sets of French doors that open onto a deck. I'm wondering if I can put the greenhouse on the deck, so you'd be walking into the greenhouse rather than onto the deck through the French doors.

I would need to cover the deck with something to keep out the cold/bugs, from the home as well as the greenhouse. (Maybe greenhouses come with floors.)

The deck is about 6 feet off the ground, as the land slopes there. The exposure is west side of the house, and I guess I can make it north west or south west depending on which French door I want to walk through.

Can this be done successfully?
