Beloved Swedish furniture manufacturers IKEA recently launched a product
helping urban gardeners extend their home grown produce. The SOCKER Greenhouse from IKEA
can help maximize limited planting space, at least until we all have a
collection of square meters to grow vegetables and fruits on. Designed
to offer a space-saving solution for urban dwellers, the mini
greenhouses from IKEA feature an adjustable roof with two operable glass
hatches for positioning plants and ventilation. Seeds and sprouts will
have no problem integrating in the powder coated steel framed
greenhouses and the simple design can be easily used to adorn any tight
corner space in the kitchen or be a part of a small indoor set of
greenhouses in your naturally lit hallway. Plants can live in these cute
little greenhouses measuring 18 inch by 9 inch by 14 inch and the
transparent containers give life to a dull living space. Designed by
Sarah Fager,the little greenhouses made of steel and Polystyrene are
priced at $19.99 each – so you figure out if the price is right for your
urban gardening passion. (courtesy; www.freshome.com)
