What a lovely greenhouse. I see it needs some repair work done to it. Is there no money for it?
Nora: the rest of the house is also under restoration... so maybe this will be next?
Beautiful green house!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River.
I love the greenhouse and what a great shot! Hope it gets the repairs that it needs, much to pretty to lose!! Have a lovely week!

What a great greenhouse - nice photos!
I have never been into Spadina House - this is a lovely green house. I will have to walk over for a tour 1 day.
What a lovely old greenhouse, and an equally lovely olde quotation to accompany it.

I agree with John Gerard.
What an elegant structure it is!
I want to see what flowers are inside.
Beautiful shots!
Have a nice day!
it's beautiful. i love the lush greenery around it.
I always love the contents of greenhouses -- but this is one where the building itself is wonderful. Thanks for showing it.
I do like the look of this greenhouse. I want to go inside and take a deep whiff of the damp earth. Mmmm.
That's a splendid old glasshouse. Glasshouses are very reassuring, somehow.
It is a lovely greenhouse and I do want to walk up the pathway and go inside to see the flowers.
They just don't make greenhouses this handsome any more, do they?
[After reading all the comments I realize the message of my sign is not so obvious. It's a poop and scoop reminder, with notice that there's a Euro 36 fine for failure to do so. :-D ]
I love old greenhouses and this one is a beauty! Love it.
