may be planted in the borders, in June and July, and

Goat's Beard, the young fhoots are eat (as thofe oi 

 Jalfafy) like afparagus at fpring. 



'Primrofe tree, makes a pretty (how, but produces fo 

 much feed, that it becomes rather a troublefome weed 

 to fome people. Cut the flower (terns oft, or pull up 

 the plant, before the feed pods are ripe enough, to fhed 

 their numerous contents. 



Rudbeckia, or American fun- flower, this biennial 

 fort is called hardy, but Ihould neverthe'efs have a dry 

 fheltered fituation. The narrow leaved dwarf perennial 

 (about three feet) fometimes proves biennial, and mav 

 be fown as fuch, a little every year, by thofe who 

 would extend their culture of flowers. 



Scabious has been noticed in the two lad lifts as an 

 annual, which it becomes, if fown early ; and fome 

 gardeners make a point ot doing it on a little heat to 

 forward them. As a biennial, ic fhould not be fown 

 too foon ; but if forward plants are tranfplanted in 

 June, it will prevent their flowering till next year, 

 when they will come very fine and itrong, and this is 

 the way to produce good ieed. 



Sena, bladder, or Ethiopian fcarlet colutea, is rather 

 tender, and the fcedling plants mult be potted and 

 houfed, or flickered by a frame from (harp froit s. 

 This flower is properly a perennial, (fee lilt IV.) but 

 as u is apt to he cut oft" in fevere weather, it is here 

 conhdered as biennial, and may take its chance atter 

 the firft flowering. It is fometimes made an annual of. 

 Sec colutea, hit VII. 



Snap dragon we confider as biennial, it not blowing 

 fo handfome afterwards. The variegated (as all (tripes 

 are) is tenderifh ; this mult be propagated from cut- 

 tings, as indeed the plain may be, though the fined 

 plants come from feed. This flower is of longeft con- 

 tinuance in a poor foil, and will grow and flouriih out 

 of tracks in old walU.
