The Janssens Arcadia and Arcadia Plus greenhouses blend elegant design and practical performance into the space next to your home. Built for gardeners who want both style and function, these lean-to models let you grow, organize, and enjoy plants without sacrificing space or access.
The Arcadia can be added to an existing structure, whether a house, shed, or garden room, while retaining premium materials and thoughtful engineering. With a sturdy 17-gauge aluminum frame, high-quality glazing options, and flexible layout for doors and windows, it supports year-round use. Optional decorative panels and color customization add character, so the structure enhances your garden as much as it supports it. The Arcadia Plus model uses more robust profiles in key roof components to increase support where it matters.
For backyard gardeners seeking a reliable, stylish growing environment as part of their home, the Arcadia creates a space where plants flourish and tending becomes a pleasure. Crafted in Belgium by Janssens, a family company with more than 75 years of greenhouse manufacturing expertise, it blends European design heritage with modern engineering for lasting beauty and performance.

Additional Options
Doors & Windows: There is no standard configuration of doors and windows. Customers may select their desired options from the 'Accessories' list to the right. Please note that double doors can only be installed in walls that contain at least 4 panels.
Glazing: Customers may substitute narrow panels (~1'2" width) for the standard glazing panels (~2'4" width) at a ratio of 2:1. This will not affect the overall dimensions of the greenhouse.
On the roof of glass models, customers may substitute polycarbonate glazing panels for the glass glazing panels.
Decorative Panels: Customers may choose to add decorative metal panels along the bottom of the side walls, identical to those found on the Retro Victorian greenhouse.
Colorss: Customers may choose a color from the RAL Color System outside of the default options.
Special Notes
The Arcadia and Arcadia Plus are advanced builds and should only be assembled by a contractor or highly skilled handyman. Please consider the following:
On glass models, the roof glazing panels are extremely large and heavy and may require additional support scaffolding during assembly.
Hardware for attaching this greenhouse to a building is not included
Weather stripping for sealing the gap between this greenhouse and a building is not included.
Due to the high level of customization for this greenhouse, Exaco cannot provide structural certifications (but we can put you in touch with the engineering firm that provided ours).
