GlalTes fhould not be quite re- 

 mov'd from them the fivll: Year: 

 Thefe muft be fet in a Stove the 

 firft and fecond Winters, while 

 young, as being then pretty- 

 tender •■) but when they are grown 

 woody, will endure in a good 

 Green-houle very well, and may 

 be expofed in Summer-time, with 

 Oranges, Myrtles, ^-c. Thefe, if 

 kept in a Green-houfc, will re- 

 quire but little Water in Winter, 

 efpecially thofe which Ihed their 

 Leaves, as being at that Sealbn in- 

 capable of difcharging a Redun- 

 dancy of Moiflure j their Leaves, 

 which were the greateft Inftru- 

 ments in throwing off fuperfluous 

 Moillurc by Peripiration, being 

 gone, the whole Tree feems to 

 remain for a certain Time in a 

 State of Reft. 



The third, fixth, feventh, ninth, 

 tenth, eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, 

 fourteenth, fifteenth, and iixteenth 

 Sorts are very tender, efpecially while 

 young, and therefore lliould have a 

 Hot- bed of Jar.ner's Bark; and as 

 they increafe in Bulk, fhould be 

 fhifted into bigger Potsj The Earth 

 for thefe ihould be a little lighter, 

 and more inclined to a Sand than 

 for the other Sorts, but never give 

 them too big Pots, which is full as 

 bad to theie as to Orange Trees j 

 neither give them too much Water 

 efpecially in Winter : The third, 

 ninth, twelfth, fifteenth and Iix- 

 teenth Sorts, being the hardiell 

 Kinds, will, when grown to be 

 woody, ftand in a common Stove 

 amongft Guazia's, Vi-burnums, 0-'C. 

 which i"hould be kept to the 

 Point of temperate Heat in Win- 

 ter j and in the Summer-time, 

 in warm Weather , may enjoy 

 the free open Air: But the fixth, 

 feventh, tenth, eleventh and four- 

 teenth Sorts muft have a Bark 



A c 



Stove in Winter, nor fliould they 

 be expos'd to the open Air in 

 Summer, at leaft for four or five 

 Years, until they are grown very 

 woody, for they are very tender, 

 and with great Difficulty preferv'd 

 in this Climate: The' Stove in 

 which thefe Ihould be placed in 

 Winter, muft be kept up to about 

 twenty Degrees of Heat above the 

 temperate Point, as marked on 

 Mr. Fowler's Botanical Thermome- 

 ters: Thefe fhould have very lit- 

 tle Water in Winter, but in the 

 Summer-time will require fre- 

 quent Refrefliings, though at that 

 Seafon it Ihould not be given them 

 in great Quantities at one time. 

 The fixth Sort is an Ever-green, 

 but the feventh flieds its Leaves 

 juft before the new ones come 

 on^ fb that it is naked of Leaves 

 about a Month or llx Weeks in 

 the Spring of the Year; which 

 hath occalion'd fome People to 

 throw them away as dead, when 

 if they had let them remain, they 

 would have come out frelh again. 

 This I thought proper to men- 

 tion, in order to caution People 

 not to be too hafty in throwing 

 out Trees for dead, but prefer ve 

 them through the fucceeding 

 Summer, to fee if there is any 

 Life left in them/ for I have 

 known feveral Plants which, after 

 having been given over by skil- 

 ful Perfons for dead, have the 

 July following, fhot out vigor- 

 oully again; and others, v/hich 

 have been deftroy'd to the Surface 

 of the Earth, have rifen again 

 from the Pvoot. 



The iirft and fixth Sorts are 

 figured in Dr. Fluhefiefs Phytogra- 

 ^hia. The third Sort is tigar'd 

 in moft of the old Botanic k Wri- 

 ters, as John Bauhin, DodonAUs, 

 ?;irkinfin, S;c. Ths Pods oi: this
