The fingle Kinds of thefe Flow- 

 ers are generally propagated by 

 Seeds, which muft be fown in 

 March in a Bed of light Earth, and 

 in May they will be fit to tranf- 

 plant out j at which Time you 

 muft prepare fbme Beds ready for 

 them, and fet them at lix Inches 

 Diftance every way : In thefe Beds 

 they may remain 'till Michaelmas, 

 at which Time they may be tranf- 

 planted into the Borders of the 

 Pleafure-Gjrdcn or Wildernefs : 

 Thefe will flower the next Year in 

 May, and will perfcft their Seeds 

 in fuly or Attguft, which you 

 lliould fave from the bcft-colour'd 

 Flowers for a Supply. 



They may be alio propagated by 

 flipping their Roots at Michael- 

 man But this is fcidom practis'd i 

 fince their Secdl'ng Roots will al- 

 %vays blow the ftrongcil, and new 

 Varieties are obtain'd yearly. 



The Double Kinds are propaga- 

 ted by Layers, as the CAr^idtions--, 



c A 



they love a middling Soil, not to© 

 light, nor too heavy or ftiff j nor 

 too much dung'd, which very of- 

 ten occaiions their rotting : Thefe 

 continue flowering for a long time, 

 and are extremely beautiful, efpe- 

 cially the Mule, which produces 

 two full Blooms of Flowers, one 

 in May, and the other in July : 

 This is very fubjed to canker and 

 rot away, efpecially if planted in a 

 Soil over-wet, or too dry, or if 

 watered with fliarp Spri ng- Water : 

 Thefe Flowers being planted in 

 Pots, are very proper t^ adorn 

 Court- Yards, at the time they are
