The greener, the more expensive.
Nice to see Hagen in his greenhouse.

Maggi, this greenhouse was the idea of Karla (my Tausendschön).
Now every day I'm one hour (or more) in the glasshouse - I call it "Frischzelle".

A good translator adds value so I'll stick with "The greener, the dearer" because dearer can mean either more expensive or more loved and in this instance both meanings could apply. However thanks for the help, Lina & Uwe; my brief education in the German language did not include je ... desto ...
And I, like Maggi, was wonderfully impressed with Hagen's greenhouse.

Well done, Hagen! Your greenhouse makes me green with envy - (I wonder if that only works in English?).

Now I have much more open chances (Arisaema, Asarum, Crocus,...............
Green with envy = Grün vor Neid! Yes it works also in German.
Sorry,but there were no galanthophile in the tv-team.
So you saw much more usual drops in the winter rain
and only a few unusual flowers only on the end of the spot

Hagen, I am soooo jealous! That's the sort of glasshouse I want for my snowdrops. I would be in there all day!

Having failed using Google translate, am I right in thinking "Tausendschön" is the equivalent of the French "Choufleur"

Arthur, I don't think the French translation is OK. Tausendschön is like Bellis perennis, a small, fine, staunchly, lovely plant. It is a nickname!
