Greenhouse - Goodbye Old Friend, Hello New
You might be able to drill through the aluminium if there is a piece wide enough anywhere? With the glass in it would be very sturdy. You could ask your installers.

Succulent ID please.
I am going with some sort of Cotyledon orbiculata but I already have one of these and the leaf shape is the same but grey leaved with a floury surface. More digging needed I think!!

Daphne - which variety to choose
We bought a daphne several years ago from Rode Hall, Congleton on a snowdrop walk about this time of year. No idea what the variety is but it self seeds very easily and is flowering now.
