obferving to keep them waterM un- 

 til they have taken Root, and may 

 be afterward tranfplanted into Nur- 

 feries till they are fit for the Pur- 

 pofes intended. The beft Seaibn for 

 removing thefe Trees, is in April 

 or Sepembery though, indeed, if 

 Care be taken to take them up 

 with a good Ball of Earth, they 

 may be tranfplanted almoft at any 

 Time, except in the Middle of 

 Winter. Thefc Trees are a very 

 great Ornament to cold and barren 

 Soils, where few other Things will 

 grow. They may alfo be propa- 

 gated by laying down the Branches, 

 or from Seeds. 



The Dwarf-kind of Box is ufed 

 for bordering of Flower-beds, or- 

 Borders 3 for which Purpofe it far 

 exceeds any other Plant, it being 

 fubjedl to no Injuries from Cold 

 or Heat, and is of a long Duration, 

 is very ealiiy kept handfome, and 

 by the Firmnefs ot its rooting> keeps 

 the Mould in the Borders from 

 wailiing into the Gravel- walks, more 

 effedually than any Plant whatever. 

 This is increas'd by parting the 

 Roots, or planting the Slips i but 

 as . it makes fb great an Increafe 

 of itfelf, and fo eafily parts, it is 

 hardly Worth while to plant the 

 Slips that have no Roots j but it is 

 now become fb commons that it 

 may be purchas'd from the Nurfe- 

 iies at a cheap Rate. 



The manner of planting this in 

 Edgings, i^c. is fo well underflood 

 by every working Gardener, that 

 it would be needlefs to mention 

 any thing of that kind here.
