SECT. XIX. LISTS OF TREES, &C. 567 



Squill will need a little protection from hard f rolls ; 

 but is fufficiently ornamental to reward the trouble. 



Tooth-wort thrives beft in fhade and moifture. 



Tubercfe, there is a dwarf ftalked, and a variegated 



leaf fort of, but they are not fo worthy of cultivation 



as the common Tingle and double ; of which two the 



Jingle is preferable, as it blows better, and is more 



fragrant. See the end of this fection. 



Tulip (the Turkey) is claffed into two forts ; the 

 taller, called ferotines, or late blowers ; and the fhorter, 

 pracsces, or early blowers ; fome have made another 

 diftinclion, inedias, but it is not necefTary. The plain 

 tulips (as they generally are when they firft blow 

 from feed) are called whole blowers, or breeders ; and 

 according as they break into other colours, {tripes, and 

 variegations, (after tranfplantationsj are denominated 

 and claffed into baguettes, bybloemens, verports, and 

 bizarres. The dwarf forts blow early, as March and 

 April, (the duke van tol earlier) allow them therefore a 

 warm border and dry foil, to preferve them from froit 

 and wet, which they are rather impatient of. Thefe 

 are often potted and forced on a hot-bed, &c. or brought 

 forward by water-glafTes, in a warm room ; but an 

 incrcafe of offsets, is only to be expe£ted from open 

 ground culture, and even there thefe early forts do it 

 fparingly. Take them tip every year to remove the 

 offsets, and renew the foil ; and keep each fort feparate, 

 and plant them (o, for then they will blow together, 

 and be all of one height. There are about fifty of the 

 early forts; but the number of choice fancy tulips is 

 more than eight hundred.
