They are all very pretty Ornaments

 are produced in ahnoft every Month ot

 Gardens. 



Thefe Plants are propagated by 

 fowing their Seeds eaily ia tlic 

 Spring in light rich Earth, where 

 they will come up, and grow very 

 flrong in a fhort Time, provided 

 they have Room ; therefore the bet- 

 ter Way is, when the Plants are 

 come up, to hoe them out, as is 

 pra£tis'd for Onions, Carrots, &c. 

 leaving the Plants about eight or ten 

 Inches afuncer every Way, obier- 

 vingto keep them clear from Wceds^ 

 and when the Seeds begin to Lc 

 form'd, you fliould cut up thole 

 that are intended to be put into rhe 

 Pickle for Cucumbers, leaving thofe 

 that arc intended for the Uie of the 

 Seeds, until they are ripe ; at wh'ch 

 Time it Ihould^be cut, and iprcad up-

 Seeds may be fpar'd.
