Connected with the winter garden is another conservatory, designed 
originally for a site in the kitchen-garden, but now erected close by the 
winter-garden house. The Vines are planted inside. The front border, 
in which they are planted, may be represented as a series of slate boxes, 
2 ft. wide and 2 ft. deep, placed inside the front wall, and level with 
the window sill; and so far as our memory serves, each box or division 
is in length nearly the width of the sashes, leaving a space between 
each of about 4 inches; a flow and return hot-water pipe passes 
beneath this border, and the space between the divisions is for admitting 
the heat from the pipes to the body of the house, and as the border has 
a slate bottom clear of the pipes the heated air escapes also from below. 
During the forcing period the soil in this border will always have a 
mean temperature of not less than 75°, kept up by the hot-water pipes 
below and the hot air passing from the pipes between the divisions. 
Arches in the front wall permit the passage of the Vine roots from the
