The firft of thefe Sorts is found 

 J.i divers Piaces in Yorkfljire, Cum- 

 herland, Nonhnmberlmd, and other

 h rarely met with in the Southern 

 Parts, unleis where it is preferved 

 in Gardens : This Plant may be 

 propagated by fowing the Seeds, 

 or parting the Roots: It rnuft have 

 a fbady moift Situation, where it 

 will thrive very well. 



The fecond and third Sorts are 

 only preferved in curious Gardens 

 of Plants, and are rarely met with 

 in the Englijl) Gardens i they are 

 very hardy, and will eridure our 

 Cold very well if planted in the 

 open Ground.

Thefe Plants are all of them 

 propagated by planting their Cut- 

 tings in a Bed of rich Earth in 

 any of the Summer Months, ob- 

 ferving to fcreen them from the 

 Heat of the Sun until they have 

 taken Root, which will be in about 

 fix Weeks or two Months after 

 planting ; at which Time they 

 fhould be tranfplanted into Pots 

 fili'd with light izndy j^arth, and 

 fet in a fhady Place until their 

 Roots are fix'd to the new Earth ; 

 then they may be expos'd to the 

 open Air till OEiober, at which 

 Tirne they fliould be hous'd, with 

 Oranges, Myrtles, &c. giving them 

 as much free Air in mild Weather 

 as IS, polfible, by opening the Win- 

 dows of the Green-houle, and ob- 

 ferving to refrefli them pretty of- 

 ten, for they all require in mild 

 Wc^'^her much Water. 



The three firll mention'd Sorts 

 are very hardy, and will endure x.o 

 (land in a cold Green-houfc, with 

 Myrtle^ and Amomum Tlinii's ; 

 where if they are only protefted 

 from freezing, it will be fufficient: 

 But the two iaft mentioned having 

 very fiicculent Branches, muft have 

 a warmer Polition ; for upon the 

 leaft Froft touching their Branches, 

 they are very apt to rot and de- 

 cay. 



Thefe Plants continue flowering 



the moft Part of the Winter Sc^- 



fpn, which renders them valuable,
