SECT. XIX, JjlSTS OF TREES, &C.' $7$ 



Some of this list, as most of the-bulbous and tuberous roots> 

 may be kept out of ground a long time, others a shorter ; 

 (see page 300) but those denominated fleshy roots, must 

 either be planted immediately, or at least in a few days. 

 It is common to them all to be takeh out of ground for 

 removal, a s soon as their leaves decay, the roots then being 

 in a state of rest, which is naturally longer, or shorter, in 

 different plants ; and if they stay in the ground till new 

 tibres are shot, they are always removed with damage, if not 

 followed by death. 



OBSERVATIONS OX PARTICULAR, FLOWERS. 



Albuca is too tender a bulb to endure much wet 

 and frost, and therefore is usually ' planted- in pots, 

 for putting under shelter (as in ,a frame, c.) in 

 winter; but may be protected in the ,", open -ground; 

 by covering with a glass, or garden-pot, towards thr- 

 ead of autumn, to keep the roots dry; and before? - 

 sharp frosts come, covering round with litter. By' 

 such a practice, several sorts of tender things that 

 die to the ground, may be preserved abroad, -h 



Anemone, the garden (.in contradistinction 'to the 

 wood) we have in great variety oi very fir** sorts; di* 

 vided generally into two kinds ; i. e. narrow abd 

 broad leaved; the latter is. the hardier. The full 

 doubles only are esteemed chuice flowers ; but the 

 semi-doubles, and singles, are showy enough for or- 

 dinary borders. The single, or poppy anemoniesj 

 (so called from their form) frequently blow. as early 

 as February, or sooner ; and thus.. become valuable, 

 for decorating the ground at so dreary, a season* 

 The wood kinds bear large flowers ; and are very 

 useful ornaments for the borders of .shrubberies^ &c. 

 at an early season, for which reason, they should be 

 planted in the most frequented shady places.
