“ grow flowly, fo they will not require to be removed out of 
“ the feed-pots the firft year, but in the Autumn the pots 
“ fhould be removed into the ftove, and plunged into the 
“ tan-bed; im fyring the plants fhould be carefully taken up, 
‘© and each planted in a feparate {mall pot, filled with light 
“ fandy earth, and plunged into a frefh hot-bed of Tanner’s- 
“ bark. In Summer when the weather is warm, they fhould © 
“ have a good fhare of air admitted to them, but in Autumn 
“ muft be removed into the ftove, where they fhould con- 
“ ftantly remain, and mutt be treated afterwards in the fame 
* manner as other tender exotic plants.” Miller's Didi.
