Conservatories and orangeries offer a beautiful location to garden indoors away from the stubborn Cheshire chills. Whether yours is room temperature or unheated, there are many plants that you can grow in your orangery or conservatory throughout the year. Room Temperature Orangeries While you can certainly grow some plants in a room temperature conservatory, this environment is not ideally suited for all. Often, the air inside will be too dry for a wide variety of plants to flourish, but you can count on palms, aloes or olives to bloom in a room temperature setting. Unheated Conservatories Those with an unheated conservatory generally have a bit more variety in what they can grow, as it really depends on the temperature inside. Subtropical plants should have a minimum of 4-8 degrees Celsius. However, an unheated orangery in winter can still produce beautiful exotic plants, such as brugmansias, clivias, pomegranates and avocados. You can even tend to a miniature vegetable garden by growing vegetables in pots. During the summer, you’ll need to be careful to regulate the inside temperature with blinds. Conservatory blinds can be purchased to block out light from above so as not to bake the inside of the room and the plants inside. This will also keep you from having to continually water your plants. Fruits & Vegetables You don’t have to limit your gardening to just the spring and summer seasons. Your conservatory gives you a chance to create a beautiful, bountiful indoor fruit and vegetable garden filled with peaches, nectarines, grapes, strawberries, tomatoes, peppers, carrots and much more.

As a natural extension of the home which blends effortlessly with the existing structures design, an orangery or conservatory can be a wonderful, cost effective way to expand the living area in your home. We’ve outlined several other common advantages of adding an orangery or conservatory to your home. Let’s in natural light Orangeries and conservatories were originally intended as a space for wealthy homeowners to grow exotic citrus trees. Of course, that was during the 17th through the 19th centuries when citrus was exotic and in short supply. These days, conservatories and orangeries are popular among homeowners who desire a flood of beautiful natural light in the home. Improves value of home A professionally installed orangery or conservatory will add value to your home as these permanent structures provide a seamless and versatile extension of living space. If you believe you may one day be in a position to sell your home, an orangery or a conservatory can be a wonderful selling point. Versatile Living Space The possibilities are many when it comes to utalising your orangery or conservatory as a practical living space. Some popular options include transforming your conservatory or orangery into a home gym, a tranquil lounge, a bright and luxurious dining area, a cosy family room, or a cheery home office. The possibilities are only limited by one’s imagination! Flexible styling An orangery or conservatory can be designed to match the original design of your home, blending effortlessly into the existing structure, but homeowners mustn’t feel limited to this common preference. An orangery or conservatory can have a bespoke design or a more modern look and presents the homeowner with a range of material and door options. Indoor Growing Space It’s important to remember that orangeries and conservatories were originally intended as indoor growing spaces, and function perfectly well as such in modern times. Orangeries and conservatories provide the opportunity to grow herbs and plants indoors over the winter, and potted outdoor plants can be safely stored indoors during cooler months without sacrificing nourishing light.
