Maybe you’ve always dreamed of having a greenhouse but didn’t think you had the space to make it happen. All you need is a small outdoor space, patio, or balcony and the Palram – Canopia Lean-to Grow.

Lean to greenhouse offers the advantages of a larger greenhouse in a smaller footprint and with the additional advantage of retaining more heat. The wall that the greenhouse is built against radiates heats back into the greenhouse. It also means you have quick access to electricity and water and look beautiful as part of your home.

The Lean-to Grow utilizes two types of virtually unbreakable polycarbonate glazing, twin-wall roof panels, and crystal-clear wall panels, for protection from overhead sunlight with plenty of exposure to grow your garden.

This small greenhouse also features a sturdy, corrosion-resistant aluminum frame, an adjustable roof vent to control the temperature and moisture levels, a built-in gutter, a lockable door that can be put on either side for extra protection, and a galvanized steel base for additional stability.

Bring your planting dreams to life no matter the size of your space with a Lean-to Grow greenhouse.

    Satisfactory Customer Support

    When I had questions about assembly and anchoring the greenhouse, the customer support was helpful. They were responsive and provided the information I needed without delay. It's always a relief when a company backs its product with good customer service.

    Effective Design

    The design of this greenhouse has been quite effective for my small garden space. It doesn't take up much room, yet provides ample space for my plants. The clear panels bring in a lot of light, and the roof vent is handy for temperature control. It's been doing its job well.

    Practical for Small-Scale Gardening

    Having a small space to work with, this greenhouse has been a practical solution for extending my growing season. It fits nicely in the corner of my yard, and I've been able to grow herbs and vegetables I wouldn't have managed otherwise. It's a simple yet effective tool for small-scale gardeners

Each wall section can carry up to 44 lbs. at most – an entire wall would depend upon the greenhouse’ size.
It can be anchored to a foundation, depending on the greenhouse, some have compatible holes at the bottom of the greenhouse base, and some have their own integrated anchoring. Yes, the greenhouse can be anchored to concrete slab. It can be anchored directly to the ground using ground stakes (ground stakes are not supplied with the greenhouse kits). *Firmly connect the product to a level surface immediately after completion of the assembly. Anchoring this product to the ground is essential to its stability and rigidity. It is required to complete this stage in order for your warranty to be valid.
The Canopia Greenhouse can be used year-round, but there are several factors to consider. The two main factors are weather and plants. What are the plants you want to grow and how much heat or cold can they handle? No matter where you live, greenhouses can be 20-40 degrees hotter inside during the day and at night they will be the same temperature as the outdoors. This is without any supplemental heating or cooling. Depending on where you live, heating and / or cooling your greenhouse can make a difference. If you need to heat or cool your greenhouse in extreme weather conditions, you may want to consider a twin-wall greenhouse such as the Canopia Glory Greenhouse which has a 10mm polycarbonate covering.
