The Poppy 9×6 cedar greenhouse gives you growing space inside and out. An extended three-sided trellis roof offers room to hang baskets, trail plants, and train climbing vines along the roofline. Built with 10mm 4-wall polycarbonate rated at R-2.1, it holds 30% more heat than standard 6mm twin-wall and turns direct sun into diffused light. The FSC-certified, kiln-dried cedar frame naturally resists rot, decay, and insects, handling moisture and seasonal swings without breaking down. It offers 50 square feet of interior space, 26 linear feet of staging shelves including a freestanding 4-tier rack to keep your plants and supplies organized without crowding floor space.
Most greenhouses sell you the structure and stop there. Every Backyard Discovery greenhouse ships with the features you’d otherwise buy separately, all backed by our 5-year warranty.

Every Creative Backyard Concepts greenhouse is built to a higher spec than what’s standard at this price point. The 10mm 4-wall polycarbonate panels deliver R-2.1 insulation, the heavy-duty framing is rated to 100 mph winds and 50 lbs per square foot of snow load. Inside, every greenhouse ships with the features competitors charge extra for — thermostat-activated ventilation, interior water spigot, PowerPort™ Electric Hub, staging shelves, slat wall, and operable windows. All of it backed by a 5-year warranty and U.S.-based support seven days a week.
Take a 360-degree look inside the 9×6 Poppy Greenhouse. See the staging shelves, the 4-tier rack, the slat wall, and how 50 square feet of growing space actually feels before it ships to your driveway.
For most home greenhouse owners, 4-wall polycarbonate is the better choice. It insulates significantly more than single-pane glass (R~2.1 vs. ~0.9), diffuses light evenly to reduce plant stress, and resists impact from hail and heavy snow. Glass offers superior clarity and a longer raw panel lifespan, making it ideal for display greenhouses or mild climates where insulation is less critical.
The thermostat-activated exhaust fan starts automatically when interior temperatures rise, while casement windows and low-mounted intake vents handle passive airflow when you want fresh air and pollinators in. Together, the system gives you both automatic and manual control to manage your greenhouse climate across the seasons.

I’m actually still in the process of building my greenhouse, but I’ve been very impressed with the quality of the materials, clarity of the instructions and precision with which everything is prepped for assembly.
I bought this a month or so ago. So far all the pieces look good. I have stained everything and due to crazy weather have not gotten the foundation done yet. That is supposed to happen November 7 then we will start assembling the following weekend. I will give another update then. 😁
We purchased the Rustic Roost Chicken coop and the Poppy Greenhouse. So far we have assembled the chicken coop. The most difficult part of the build was the foundation we needed to build prior to assembly. The app is extremely helpful to use when assembling the unit. Parts are pretty well marked, some a bit difficult to see, but we figured it out. It is sturdy and well thought out, looking forward to starting on the Greenhouse now.
I ended up purchasing the 11×7 Poppy greenhouse over the Memorial Day weekend, after reading a multitude of reviews. Based on those reviews I decided to give Creative Backyard Concepts a chance. From delivery to final build I could not have been happier with the experience. As a DIYer, this was in my wheelhouse. What was most impressive was the build instructions, which were complimented by the online 3D app. The inventory list for each box was invaluable in saving time from having to look for the multitude of parts and hardware. To make the build easier, I set up a 6ft table in my garage and placed all of the hardware in plastic containers which were arranged numerically. This preparation will save an enormous amount of time searching for specific hardware. The quality of the cedar was very good, solid, and consistent. Throughout the build, the instructions actually had notes, in red, that were important “lookouts” so as not to make an error with regards to specific part orientation or sequence. As I worked my way through the build, the more impressed I became with the instructions and how I could tell that the folks responsible for the instructions were truly hands-on common sense engineers. My hat off to the company for their efforts in making these projects enjoyable along with providing a wonderful finished product…that appears to last. As with any quality build, if you do not ensure that the pad is level and the sidewalls are not square and level, you will not have an enjoyable experience. Creative Backyard Concepts has hit a grand slam with their kits. Thank you for an enjoyable experience and wonderful sense of accomplishment that my wife will use and enjoy for years to come!
We recently bought and assembled the 11×7 Poppy greenhouse and are very happy with the entire process. The greenhouse was delivered in less than a week. We decided to put it on a 12×8 concrete pad. The assembly took us 3 days, it was in the 90s so we only worked 5-6 hours. You definitely want 2 or more people for the assembly. One key piece of advice was to organize all of the pieces before assembly starts, there are a lot. It helped having them organized so we didn’t spend too much time finding the pieces we needed. We used both the printed instructions as well as the BILT app, sometimes a 3 D view is very helpful. The wood and hardware were very good! All of the hardware is high quality and they include extras of almost all hardware. Almost all of the pre-drilled pilot holes were perfect, we did have to redrill a few, mainly in the front header. We did a little research and believe that if we just bought the cedar pieces from a lumberyard, it would have cost more than what we paid Creative Backyard Concepts.
One other item to note is their customer service. During the build we couldn’t find one of the window dust caps, it could be installed anytime so we just moved on. On the last day of the build, I found that one of our dogs had chewed up the piece and it was in another part of our yard. Did a chat with Creative Backyard Concepts and they agreed to send us a replacement at no cost! We also asked for additional plant hangers which they also agreed to send at no cost. This is the first online company that provides excellent customer service like they were our neighbors.
We also bought two teak planters from Creative Backyard Concepts and they too were excellent quality.
If you have any doubts about purchasing their products, based on our experience, do not worry. Great products and even better customer service!
I love it. The kit has MANY parts–but that just means it’s comprehensive and not cheap. I wish they made cedar sheds that matched their greenhouses! Pics coming soon…
I absolutely love My 11 x 7 poppy greenhouse!! The directions were very thorough and easy if you take it step-by-step. The craftsmanship and quality of the greenhouse is like none other! I am so in love! It is absolutely magical. I added my own, finishing touches to it to make it uniquely mine but all of the detail and accessories that it comes with are absolutely amazing. I may just move into it!!
I have unpacked the boxes of my 6×9 poppy greenhouse. I now am going to seal the wood with Once-Seal wood sealer and then assemble. Just by the way it was packed, the quality of the pieces and the in depth instructions, i know this is one fine product and will be the perfect greenhouse for my urban back yard
Greenhouse specialists available 7 days a week, 8am–6pm CST. Real humans who know the product and can answer questions about your specific model and situation.
Built with heavy-duty materials, your Creative Backyard Concepts greenhouse is designed for lasting performance. Following a consistent maintenance routine is key to maximizing its lifespan, ensuring safety, and preserving the quality of each session.
Every claim on this page is backed by verified specifications and third-party-tested Pro-Tect™ ratings.

Twice the walls and three times the insulating air chambers of standard 4–6mm twin-wall polycarbonate. The same specification used in commercial greenhouses, not entry level kits.

At R-2.1, our 10mm 4-wall panels hold roughly 30% more heat than the 6mm twin-wall (R-1.6) on most consumer greenhouses. That’s the difference between keeping heat overnight and losing it.

Pro-Tect™ rated to withstand 2,600 lbs of snow load and 100 mph winds, the Poppy is engineered and structurally tested to perform in real-world weather conditions.

Most growers plan for winter cold, but even a mild spring day is the risk that catches people off guard, since a sealed greenhouse can hit 100°F or higher inside. The Poppy’s thermostat-activated 620 CFM exhaust fan and passive intake vent pulls out heat automatically as temperatures rise, even when you’re not there.

The FSC-certified, kiln-dried cedar frame delivers structural strength while naturally insulating against cold transfer and resisting rot, decay, and insects. Cedar develops character with age and needs only periodic sealing to maintain its finish.
Everything here comes standard, not as upgrades or add-ons.

One exhaust fan automatically turns on at your set temperature and vents heat before it builds up, then cycles off once the air cools. No switch to flip, no doors to open.

One easy-open casement window provides passive ventilation and airflow control, while letting in pollinators to help your plants grow and bloom.

26 linear feet of upper and lower staging shelves, including a 4-tier rack, gives you space to start seeds, propagate, and tend potted plants, plus a slat wall that organizes tools, hooks, and planters vertically.

A freestanding 4-tier rack gives you four levels of vertical space for plants, seedlings, and supplies, easy to move or reconfigure as your growing needs change.

The PowerPort™ Electric Hub includes 3 outlets and 3 USB ports, bringing outdoor-rated power access inside the greenhouse for low-draw accessories like grow lights and fans. For supplemental heating, follow the greenhouse manual, heater manufacturer guidance, and local electrical code.

The exterior inlet connects your garden hose to the interior spigot, and an included collapsible hose lets you water plants inside your greenhouse without hauling a watering can back and forth.

At 36″ wide, it’s sized to roll a wheelbarrow through, so you can move bags of soil, plants, and harvest in and out without unloading first.

Four movable hooks let you hang baskets, dry herbs, or trellis crops anywhere in the greenhouse, ready to reposition as your growing needs change.

Every piece comes pre-cut, pre-drilled, and labeled, so it’s ready to assemble without any measuring or cutting to do yourself.
Whether it’s a warranty claim or an assembly question, we’re here to help at every step.

Every Creative Backyard Concepts greenhouse kit is backed by a comprehensive 5-year warranty covering the frame, polycarbonate panels, hardware, and every included feature. Replacement parts ship from our U.S. warehouse within 48 hours and stay available for the life of the product.

Our US-based team of greenhouse specialists is available 7 days a week, 8am–6pm CST by phone, chat, or email. Real people who know the product can help you find the right greenhouse, answer questions, or troubleshoot anything before, during, or after assembly.
