Frame Exotics. 



6.590. Frame exotics are such plants as are rather hardier than those kept in the green- 

 house and of low growth. Some of those enumerated here will also be found among 

 the green-house, and a few among the hardy plants. The frames or pits in which they 

 are kept are never artificially heated, but are well covered with mats or other materials 

 during severe frost. The frames are sometimes attached to the front of the green-house 

 or stove, and thus derive some heat from the front flue, which, when an outside 

 frame is in contemplation, is generally built in the front wall. When this is not 

 the case, they may be advantageously placed on a border sloping to the east, south, or 

 west, under the shelter of a hedge or wall. The pots should be plunged in scoriae, 

 ashes, sawdust, or any similar non-conductors, and abundance of air, and little water 

 given in the winter time. Few scenes are more interesting in the spring season 

 than a small oblong flower-garden, surrounded by a holly-hedge enriched with many 

 spikes of coral berries : within the hedge a sloping frame-border all round; on the 

 north side, containing frame exotics ; on the west, early-flowering bulbs, as hyacinth, 

 crocus, narcissus, &c. ; on the east, choice auriculas ; and on the south side (the border 

 facing the north , a collection of alpines. The middle of the garden laid out in beds of 

 florists' flowers. In summer the sashes are applied to various useful purposes, as to ripen 

 fruits against walls, to raise late crops of cucumbers, melons, &c
