Whether you’re an experienced gardener or just starting out with your first veggie garden or a few pots of herbs, a greenhouse is a great investment. A greenhouse provides a sheltered place to keep your plants so you can extend the growing season: It allows you to start gardening earlier in the spring and to keep growing for a longer period of time into the fall.

A greenhouse also protects tender young plants from that unexpected frost or freeze. It also is a good option to shelter vulnerable plants from hungry, grazing critters such as bunnies and deer. And it’s a great way to overwinter any tender perennials, such as cannas or dahlia tubers, that need a little extra cold weather protection.

While most of these picks aren’t going to provide adequate protection from climates that experience significant freezes (you’d need a more permanent, hard-sided solution or a heated greenhouse for that), they are great for mild regions of the country, such as most of the Southeast.

Just remember that these mini-greenhouses also get much warmer than you expect and can quickly overheat on sunny days. Make sure you pay attention to the weather forecast and open the vents or doors to prevent frying your plants on warm days in spring and summer.

Ahead, these are the most popular Amazon picks for mini-greenhouses:
