CONSERVATORY
A conservatory is a glass and metal structure
traditionally found in the garden of a large
house. Modern conservatories are smaller, can
be made of PVC and are often added to houses
for home improvement purposes. The traditional
nineteenth century conservatory was a large
greenhouse used for growing tender and rare
plants, or, less often, for birds and rare
animals - sometimes with the plants and animals
living together.
Many cities, especially those in cold climates
and with large European populations have built
municipal conservatories to display tropical
plants and to hold flower displays.
Smaller garden conservatories became popular in
the second half of the twentieth century, as
places which are part-greenhouses, for conserving
plants, and part-recreational, as a solarium or
sunroom. They are often used as an extra room
rather than for horticulture.
