Kathleen,
I've become an even bigger fan of coldframes this
year -- cramming
rooted cuttings, tender succulents and other little guys in.
Everything is thriving.
Definitely the poor man's greenhouse.
In many ways even better than one -- certainly
takes up far less
space.
I want to expand next year.
Would you be able to send along any photos showing
us details and
close-ups?
There is a chapter in the Timber Press book "Rock Garden Design and
Construction" that covers coldframes, including photos and schematic
drawings. I should probably hesitate to recommend it since I wrote
it, but there it is.
