Components
Water tanks collect the rain. They are directed to different locations to collect as much water as possible, even when it rains of overthrow.
A system of pipes store rain and water the plants. Such a dense network of pipes is needed, so that you can water all the plants inside the greenhouse, wherever they are.
As in all greenhouses, the glass dome allows you to create a perfect temperature inside the greenhouse.
The flowerbeds in solid wood are modular and integrate with the surrounding environment. The pipes are connected to the tanks and drop water directly on the plants
