Im looking into what plants i can grow in the greenhouse as im moving on monday :crazy:
So far ive come up with
Hairgrass verieties
Lilaeopsis brasiliensis
Crypts
Swords
MOSS :D (inc. pellia etc)
Bolbitis
Java fern verieties
HC
PH
Glosso

And thats my shortlist for now :)
Im mainly going for lo growing plants, and rhizome plants as i dont like the look of large stem plants when grown emersed.
Any ideas on what else i might be able to grow?
It is kept a bit warm in the winter, warm enough for house plants.
 
i chucked a load of HM and a bit of rotala sp. green in a little tank on my windowsill and its grown emersed very quickly even with no top on the tank. its got and inch or so of plain gravel and the water level is just to the top of the gravel. i mist it every so often but i am sure it would be ok without :thumbup:
 
Hate emersed stems :D
Although as a little side project it could be a nice idea :)

I plan on sourcing some of the more unusual mosses arouund to grow emersed as a bit of a money maker.
Great method is chuck it into a blender for a bit and pour it over a tray of gravel, wait a few months and there you have it :lol:
