The Impatient Gardener

Every spring I get a little bit ahead of myself.

Where I live you are not supposed to plant anything until Mother's Day. Mother's Day?! That's almost summer!

I cannot possibly be expected to wait that long. That's why I like this little greenhouse tent. I can put these suckers right over my poor little plants and it's suddenly summer in their tiny space of earth even if it's still slightly frosty everywhere else.

No it's not going to survive a snowstorm, but it works for those chilly spring days when your plants need a little bit extra to keep them going until the bright sun comes out.

It's not especially strong or especially sturdy. If you have a lot of money riding on your plants, you might want something a little stronger. But for my purposes, and for the price, this does the job more than well enough. I don't lose plants to spring chills, and that's what I'm looking for!
