THE HOT-HOUSE. 



October, as then directed, and protected in garden-frames, till wanted 

 for forcing ; but, if the weather permits, you may take them up at 

 any time, with balls of earth about their roots, planting one good 

 plant in each pot ; always observing, to choose those of two or three 

 years old, and which are full of bearers. 



Place these pots towards the front of the hot-house, near the 

 glasses, and let them have water frequently, especially when they 

 are in blossom, and setting young fruit ; but observing at these 

 times not to water too freely over the flowers, for fear of washing 

 off the impregnating farina, giving it chiefly to the earth in the 

 pots* 



Of Flowering Plants in the Hot-house. 



You may now introduce into this department, many kinds of 

 flowering plants, to be forced into bloom at an early season ; such 

 as honeysuckles, African-heaths, double-flowering dwarf almonds, 

 and cherries, Sec. also pots of pinks, carnations, daisies, double 

 sweet-williams, rockets, wall and stock-gilly-fiowers, Sec. and pots 

 or glasses of any kind of bulbous roots, planted either in earth or 

 water, may also be introduced, with a variety of curious annual flow- 

 ers, which may be sown in pots, and forwarded there to early per- 

 fection.
