The Pest Free Elevated Garden is designed to allow you to produce stronger, healthier, pest free plants without the aid of chemical pesticides. The greenhouse protects against pests, allowing your plants to grow in warmer, sunnier conditions which helps to encourage higher yields on your plants.

The Pest Free Elevated Garden raises your plants away from many common garden pests such as slugs, snails, rabbits and rodents. The base is roughly 51cm (20 in) high and does also allow you to tend to your plants whilst you’re sat in a chair. This is ideal for people with limited mobility who have trouble bending over. The greenhouse helps to protect your plants from pests without pesticides as it has insect netting hung over all sides. This allows the rain and sunlight through to your plants while keeping the insects out. It will additionally offer some protection to your plants from larger pests such as birds, cats or dogs. The side netting is easily pulled up when required to allow you access to your plants.

The Pest Free Elevated Garden is constructed from a PVC UV-resistant frame and base. It also includes 7mm clear poly sheeting that can be used to cover the sides of the greenhouse over the netting. This sheeting allows the garden to be used more like a traditional greenhouse would, keeping the plants within warmer and protected from the elements which is great for seedlings or for extending the plants growing season.

The Pest Free Elevated Garden measures 124.5 cm x 122 cm x 122cm (49 in x 48 in x 48 in). Because the garden is raised up from ground level, the temperature of the soil for the plants is higher, helping them to grow more vigorously. The plants also have more access to the sunlight without being so easily shaded by other objects around the garden. 

Though this elevated garden does prevent the need for the use of hazardous chemical pesticides, the use of PVC plastic is not eco-friendly in the slightest. There are plenty of other types of eco-friendly plastics that could be used instead. The manufacturers could also have used sustainable bamboo rather than use plastic. So a great idea, but it’d be pretty easy to make it completely eco-friendly with just a few changes.

The Pest Free Elevated Garden costs $599.95 and assembles within 2 hours using the supplied tools.

The Solar-Powered Garden Insect Theatre combines a solar-powered light with a sustainable insect habitat to attract insects into your garden and the insect theatre itself. During the day, the solar panel charges up the internal battery. At night, the theatre lights up, attracting a range of insects such as moths, lacewings and butterflies. When dawn comes along, the internal light automatically switches off, and the batteries are charged up again.

The insects are able to get into the insect theatre through the holes in the side, the louvres and around the edges of the wide door. This means that the insects are not trapped, and they can enter or exit at any time. You can insert branches, leaves and other plant material through the trapdoor at the base of the unit. To encourage insects into the unit, you just need to mount it in a warm, dry and slightly shady area.

The insect theatre is perfect for adults and children as a fascinating way to encourage insects into the garden. The insect theatre is made from sustainably grown timber, and treated with an environmentally safe wood preserving agent.

The outside dimensions of the box measures 205mm x 170mm x32mm, and prices start at around £29 (or $47 US).

The Green Glazed Ceramic Solar Sphere Lantern is a quaint solar light that is perfect for a conservatory, kitchen window, or any windowsill really. The lantern looks very much like its candle-lit counterpart, except without the need for candles. This means you don’t need to worry about finding eco-friendly candles, or indeed the fire risk from having lit candles around the home.

The lantern is a solar-powered gadget, doing its usual magic of charging up an internal NiMh rechargeable battery during the day, and running for up to 8 hours at night. The NiMh batteries are replaceable too, so you could charge up batteries in a standard battery recharger if you wanted to make sure your batteries were fully charged for a party.

The Ceramic Solar Sphere Lanterns are available for just £11.99 each from GreenFingers.

The Upside Down Tomato Garden allows you to grow your tomato plants downwards away from soil, allowing the tomatoes to ripen in the air rather than rotting in the soil. The planter is pretty compact too, needing only 25 inches by 25 inches of floor space. As long as you have plenty of sunlight, the planter can go anywhere, including patios and balconies.

The planter is made from robust PVC, and the base can be filled with sand to keep the planter stable and upright. The planter tray can hold up to 80lbs (around 40kg) of soil, which is plenty of soil for a large number of plants. With the tomatoes at the base of the planter, you can also plant herbs on top of the planter. This makes the most of the space the planter gives you. In total, the planter measures 48″ in height by 25″ square on the base.

The Upside Down Tomato Garden is available for just $79.95 from Hammacher Schlemmer.
