Varieties. The Common Green ; Wormwood ; Green, 

 | with variegated leaves; Red, with variegated leaves;

Soil and Situation. A dry, moderately fertile soil is 

 best suited to their growth, in a sheltered situation. 



Propagation : by Cuttings. These may be either of the 

 preceding or same year's growth ; if of the first, plant 

 in April ; if of the latter, not until the close of May or 

 middle of J une. The shoots of the same year are usually 

 employed, as they more readily emit roots, and assume 

 a free growth. The outward 'and most robust shoots 

 should be chosen, and cut from 5 to 7 inches in length. 

 All but the top leaves being removed, insert by the 

 dibble almost down to these, in rows 6 inches apart each 

 way, in a shady border, and during moist weather, 

 otherwise water must be given immediately, and re- 

 peated occasionally, until they have taken root. 



By Seed. Sow in April, in a bed of rich, light earth, 

 in drills J inch deep, and 6 inches apart. When ; or 

 3 inches high, thin the plants to half a foot apart, and 

 those removed prick out at a similar distance. In the 

 autumn or succeeding spring, as the plants are strong or 

 weak, remove them to their final stations. 



After-culture. The decayed flower-stalks, stunted 

 branches, &c., remove in early winter and spring, and 

 the soil of the beds slightly turn over. When the plants 

 have continued two or three years, a little dry, well- 

 putrefied dung may be turned in during early spring. 

 I Attention to the mode of gathering has an influence in 

 keeping the plants healthy and vigorous. The tops 

 ought never to be cropped too close, so as to render the 

 branches naked or stumpy.
