Description

Your struggle to find a reasonably-priced greenhouse with the high quality of materials and construction that ensure it is up to job could finally be over, with this 6x4 Hybrid from Palram. The natural aluminium finish of this model (the Silver) produces an engineered and sleek look enjoyed by many customers, with its clean, metallic lines that will never rust. To explore other looks, compare the Silver to the Green and Grey models to find a greenhouse that matches your garden best.

The hybridity from which the Hybrid derives its name lies in the construction of its panels. Transparent polycarbonate makes up the walls of the greenhouse, while merged glazing is used for the roof panels and has a 'frosted' look. The result of this unique approach is a greenhouse that you can look into with ease, while keeping the light-diffusing qualities of other greenhouses, such as the Mythos. This lets you show off any gardening projects within, but keeps the interior temperatures more stable.

With a footprint of just 6x4, this Hybrid will easily fit into gardens with only limited available space. This makes it the greenhouse of choice for urban gardens or for anyone wanting to develop their growing projects while being able to keep the rest of their garden for leisure. The option to choose the side on which you would like to place the hinges for the single door is especially helpful in more restrictive spaces.

Features

The Hybrid does a fantastic job of iterating on the quintessential greenhouse, with some handy features that will enhance your gardening experience. One such feature is its manual vent, which can be opened to increase airflow and reduce humidity and temperature as needed.

The Palram Hybrid's most unique feature among the range is its combination of glazing types, with clear polycarbonate being used for the wall panels and frosted style glazing for all roof panels. These UV-absorbing polycarbonate panels can withstand hits from stray footballs without shattering like glass, and will never turn clouded or yellow with age. This strength is why the Hybrid is resistant to wind speeds up to 56mph, and why each square foot can take the weight of 15.4lbs of snow.  

Security is often a concern for gardeners who like to store their tools or other items in the greenhouse. Fortunately, the Palram Hybrid 6x4 has a door catch that can easily be locked with the addition of your own padlock. Another feature that will improve your experience is the built-in guttering system, that reduces the need to use water from your home to water plants by making any rainfall onto the greenhouse's roof very straightforward to collect in water butts.

Accessories

The 6x4 Palram Hybrid greenhouse offers an excellent degree of improved temperature and humidity control compared to the outdoors, but if you're the type of hobbyist who needs their gardening environment set up just so, we think that Palram's range of accessories have extraordinary utility.

For example, the Shade Kit provides some relief from sunlight for any plants vulnerable to being damaged by the hotspots that tend to appear in the summer season. The Shade Kit comes with clips that also make useful hangers for baskets or stems that need stringing up to the greenhouse ceiling.

Maximising your available space is also worth considering with a more modestly sized greenhouse such as the 6x4 Hybrid. You may want to pick up a few Heavy Duty Shelf Kits, which attach to the greenhouse's aluminium frame and can be lined up closely along a wall. Each shelf supports up to 40kg. Otherwise, the freestanding Two Tier Staging units offer an impressive amount of space and have perforations to ensure any water will drain away from your plants.

Explore these accessories and more before ordering, and easily include your chosen accessories in the same purchase as your greenhouse.

Additional Details

Assembling your Hybrid greenhouse is made simple with clear instructions and panels that slot together once the aluminium frame is in place. Customers find it is best to put their greenhouse together with a friend, over the course of a day or across a weekend. While assembling, the owner can decide for themselves the direction they would like the single door to open, by choosing which side of the frame to fasten the door's hinges.

Feel secure in the knowledge that your Palram greenhouse will be covered by the same five-year warranty that is offered to every product in the range. Check the instructions provided by the manufacturer to ensure you know the full details for adequate maintenance and can retain the coverage, which takes minimal effort.

"The item was more lightweight than expected and some connection brackets were difficult to install because of the material used, but overall it will serve its purpose."
