The fituation moft preferable for a plan- 

 Cation is the fouthern declivity of a hill, 

 rather gradual than abrupt ; or a fpot that 

 is flickered by a wall, a bank, or any other

 which fo frequently blow, during the fpring 

 months, in this ifland : but at the fame

 plants muft enjoy a free current of air; for 

 if that be obftrudted thfcy will not profper.
