in a good Soil. The beft Seafon 

 for this Work is in March ; They 

 all thrive beft in a poor Soil. 



The third, fourth, and fifth 

 Sorts are common Plants, in moft 

 Parts of 'England, and are rarely 

 preferv'd in Gardens, unlefs it be in 

 publick Botanick Gardens, to in- 

 creafe the Number of Varieties. 



The other Sorts, tho' Strangers 

 in our Climate, yet will do very 

 well if fown in the Spring of the 

 Year in an open Bed of frefh Earth, 

 (except the tenth and eleventh Sorts, 

 ivhich are fomewhat tender, and 

 Ihould be firil: rais'd in a moderate 

 Hot-bed, and may afterwards be 

 tranfplanted abroad, where they 

 will flower, and ripen their Seeds 

 very well) : They are moft of them 

 Annuals, therefore fliould either be 

 fown every Spring, or their Seeds 

 fuffer'd to fow themfelves, where- 

 by the Labour may be fav'd of pre- 

 ferving their Seeds j and the Plants 

 which arilc from their Seeds in 

 Autumn, it they ftand the Winter, 

 will flower early the ilicceeding 

 Summer, and perteft their Seeds 

 better than if fown in the Spring. 



Thefe Varieties are very proper 

 for all curious CoUedions of Plants, 

 but are feldom preferv'd in Gar- 

 dens for Ule or Pleafure.

 produce fair Flowers for two 

 Months fucceiTively. 



The other two Sorts afford fine 

 Spikes of beautiful Flowers, and 

 deferve a Place in fome remote 

 Corner of the Garden, for the 

 Ufe of their Flowers to furnifh 

 Bafons for Halls, Parlours, ^c,
