lini gardens by the title of Sage-tree, or Jerufaicffi 

 ■ Sage. The plants were formerly kept in pots, and 

 -houfed in winter with other exotic pl&nrs; but of late 

 years they have been planted in the open air, where 

 * they are feJdom Injured by cold, unlefs in very fevere 

 ^ winters -, fo they are intermixed with other Ihrubs of 

 the fame grov/th in quarters of wildernefs-work^ 

 where they add to the variety ; for as they retain their 

 hoar)' woollj^ leaves all the year, they make a good 

 appearance in winter -, and their yellow flowers, whicli 

 continue great part of the fummer, being intermixed 

 with their hoary leaves, have a good effeft; 

 Thefe plants Ihould have a dry foil and a warm fliel- 

 terrf fituation, otherwife they will not live in the operi 

 air. They may be planted among Ciflufcs of all the 

 -different kinds, the fhrubby Moon-trefoil, evergreen 

 'Cytifus, Worm wood-tree,' and fome other exotic 

 - fhrub:^ of the fame countries, which require a warm fi- 

 tuation and a dry foil, being too tender for open 

 plantations which are expo fed to ftrong cold winds ; 

 and as they are not of long duration, they are better 

 when feparated from trees and fhrubs which continue 

 -many years; for thefe rarely live above twelve or 

 ■ fourteen years in dry ground, and not more than half 

 ■' Kb long in coldmoiil land, or where they are not well 

 fiieltered. -
