New tort outdoor enclosure just going to plant some things and make a few hides and put a shallow water feature in there and then it will be finished.

Wow, Daniel: You went all out! Most folks just stack the block up on top of each other but I see you actually mortared them together. This looks really great. I'm sure your tortoises will love it! Will your greenhouse serve a "plant" purpose too, or is it just for the tortoises?

That is simply beautiful! I sure wish I could have something like that for my smaller torts...
Daniel...you did a really nice job...
Plant a couple of Hibiscus too, the blooms are beautiful and the torts love to eat them...

Fancy!
That is a great enclosure. I LOVE the greenhouse. I would love something like that for my bonsai and my tort.
I love it! It's beautiful what kind of tortoises do you have to go in there. Your weather also looks wonderful. Any pictures of your torts?
Looks like an awsome way to make the most of a colder climate like here in NY! Nice job.
Wow that's awesome.
WOOOOW !!! Very very pro - love it!!!! I hope I get to build Tallula an enclosure like that when we move back home !
Cheers everyone for the nice comments!
I keep 5 hermanns eastern which are 8yrs old 3 female 2 male and 2 Greeks 2 and a half sex not 100% sure yet.
In sunny England weather has been very good recently for this time of year at least with the greenhouse they can go in there on colder summer days.

It's a "Pimp Palace" Haha - sorry, couldn't resist
Has anyone got any ideas for some good plants to use I have put a palm in there,grape vine and will get hibiscus was wondering whether an olive tree would be ok. Also whats best to put in the greenhouse? I have made a nesting site already.
What about a strawberry patch? Or a fruit tree. I have a fig tree in mine....my tort loves figs. You could put some pansies...or some other kind of flowers. You are so lucky to have all that space.
Petunia's are pretty and grow pretty easily....if they can grow in Dubai, they sure will last in your greenhouse/outside
I shall take a trip to the nearest garden centre. At the moment I have made a hide with rocks and a flower pot has anyone got some good ideas for another hide?
Cheers

Just remember you want it organic, or it needs to be out of the tort's reach and sight/smell for at least 3-6 months due to pesticides, etc.
i like the greenhouse efect.very creative.
