Renowned gardening expert Jon Wheatley recently shared his thoughts on horticulture, business, and Keder Greenhouses. Known for his extensive work with the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) and BBC Gardener’s World, Jon is a respected voice in the gardening community. From his base at Stonebarn Landscapes in the picturesque Chew Valley near Bristol, Jon and his family-run team have been building gardens that are anything but ordinary.
Building Gold Standard Gardens
Over the last decade, Jon’s team has earned an impressive reputation, crafting RHS Gold Medal-winning gardens and exhibits. With more than 50 customers and over 20 RHS Gold Medal features to their name, the Stonebarn Landscapes team excels in garden shows, landscaping, and maintenance. With over 50 years of horticultural expertise, Jon’s endorsement is no small feat.
A Strong Endorsement for Keder Greenhouses
When discussing Keder Greenhouses, Jon was full of praise:
“It’s an absolutely brilliant concept.”
Jon highlighted their exceptional wind resistance, recounting a winter of severe storms that tested the durability of various greenhouses in his area. Comparing Keder Greenhouses to traditional glasshouses and polythene structures, he noted:
“Glass can go everywhere. Admittedly, it’s old glass. Polythene went everywhere, but the Keder houses stayed exactly where they were. And they were fine.”
This resilience is a major advantage, making Keder Greenhouses a reliable choice for gardeners across the UK.
Affordable, Versatile, and Perfect for Communities
In addition to their strength, Jon pointed out that Keder Greenhouses are more cost-effective than traditional glasshouses. Their versatility also makes them ideal for a wide range of settings, from individual gardens to community projects. Jon, a strong advocate for community gardening, believes Keder Greenhouses can play a key role in encouraging people to grow their own produce.
“Every community in the UK, and every green space in the UK, could have a garden using the Keder concept. We’ve got to get people to actually start growing in communities.”
Designed for Year-Round Growing
Keder Greenhouses also stand out for their clever design features:
Ventilation for Summer - Domestic models feature heat-activated vents, while larger commercial units include top-down ventilation systems to keep things cool.
Insulation for Winter - The triple-layer cladding provides excellent insulation, keeping out the cold during the winter months.
Even Light Diffusion - The cellular structure of the cladding disperses sunlight evenly, avoiding hotspots that can disturb plant growth and ensuring uniform cultivation of strong, healthy plants.
A Growing Solution for Everyone
With so many benefits, it’s no wonder Keder Greenhouses are trusted by gardening enthusiasts, professionals, and community groups alike. Designed and manufactured in the UK using high-quality materials, Keder Greenhouses are built to withstand the elements and provide a long-lasting solution for growers.
