ABSTRACT:
A new portable greenhouse construction for providing seasonal or year round gardens. The inventive device includes a floor, side walls, end walls, and a roof defining an enclosure. Ballast containers are connected to the base of the end walls and side walls for stabilizing the greenhouse on the ground when filled with a ballast material, such as water. The roof is arch shaped and includes a pair of retractable, translucent covers which are rolled up onto a shaft to permit fresh air into the interior of the greenhouse through a mesh screen. Weighted rods are disposed at the edge of each cover to bias the covers to a position covering the mesh screen when the covers are unrolled from the shaft. The greenhouse includes an integral floor with a drain therein for draining moisture from the greenhouse.
