ing. There Is a plant of this kind in the'Chelfea Gar- 

 den, which is more than fifty years old, and has re- 

 fifted the fevereft cold without any covering, and 

 produces great plenty of flowers and fruit annually. 

 Thofe plants which come up in the full ground will 

 require" no other care biit to keep them clean from 

 weeds, and thin them where they come up too clofe, 

 giving them room to grow the firft year ; and when 

 their ftalks decay in autumn, the furface of the ground 

 fhotild be covered^ with tan to prevent the froft from 

 penetrating to the roots, or in frofty weather, they 

 may be covered with ftraw or Peas haulm, which will 

 anfwer the fame purpofe, the young plants^beingfome- 

 what tender;* and iriVhe fpring, the roo'ts ihould be 

 carefully taken up, planting them clofe" to a warm 

 wall, as before direfted. j v ^^ „ \ . • '' V ' ^ , 

 The other three forts, are too tender to five tlirough 

 the winter in the open air in this country, fo they mufl: 

 be kept in pots'; and houfed in autumn. Thefe plants 

 may be propagated either by feeds or cuttings. J 

 The fecond and fourth fprts ripen their feeds pretty 

 well in Englandj'^To thefe may be propagated by fow- 

 ing them on a moderate hot-bed in the fpring ; ahd 

 when the plants are about an inch high, they Ihould 

 be each tranfplanted into a fmall pot filled with light 

 earth, and plunged into a moderate hot-bed, fhading 



them from the fun till they have taken new root ; then
