Oregon Greenhouse in Winter

Growing Tropical Flowers in Winter. Congratulations to Gail and Bert Waser from SE Oregon on winning December’s Dome of the Month contest. Wow! They blew us all away with this beautiful photo of their snow-kissed Growing Dome Greenhouse full of tropical flowers. Gail took this photo on November 18th and had the following to add, “A little chilly last night, but the Angel Trumpet, Fushia’s, & tomatoes don’t mind at all!” Really – these greenhouses do grow year-round! This is one of the reasons we do what we do so that people can enjoy a lush garden oasis in the middle of winter. It lifts the spirits like nothing else can when everything outside is white, gray, and brown. Many others agree as Gail and Bert’s photo received over twice as many likes (446) and way more shares (199) than any other photo entered to date. Way to blow away the competition, and what a great way to end the year! We’ve included below a photo taken on the same day of the inside of Gail and Bert’s 18′ Growing Dome.

I worked at Growing Spaces from 2015 to 2023 and returned in 2025. I’m here to guide you through purchasing a Growing Dome® greenhouse—from planning and site selection to choosing the right accessories for your climate. My goal is to help you create a thriving space for plants (and people!). I also manage the Growing Dome Advisor team and help with technical questions, installation documents, and day-to-day operations. I love empowering people to grow fresh, nutrient-dense food and watching a Growing Dome transform empty land into a personal sanctuary. I enjoy collaborating with our team to solve challenges and make it easy for anyone to buy a Growing Dome. I graduated from Western Colorado University in 2013 with a B.A. in Environmental Studies. In my free time, I enjoy hiking with my wife and our two big dogs, skiing, backpacking, and exploring the outdoors with my camera.
