WHEN the heat rifes, if it is moderate, 

 \vhich it generally is, there \vill be no fur- 

 ther trouble with it, for it will laft long 

 enough to bring the plants to perfe&ion : 

 but if it mould be very hot, which fome- 

 times happens, the pots muft be raifed until 

 the violent heat is over, and then they 

 may be let down, only fHrring the bark 

 deep enough to plunge them to the top. 

 They will now require a good deal of wa- 

 fer and air, if the weather is warm. 



IF they pufh more moots than one, take 

 them off as foon as they appear ; put a 

 (lick to that which is to remain, and tie 

 it up as -it advances in height, for it will 

 be of great detriment to the plant, and re- 

 tard its growth, to let it lie down. 



THE frame mould be raifed as the plants 

 grow high, fo as to keep the glafles a foot 

 from the top of the plants ;. but the bot- 

 tom of the frame mould be kept clofe, fb 

 as no. air can get in (which will be eaiy 

 to do, as the bed is broader than the frame)
