All thefe Species of Sun-Vhwers 

 are Natives of America, from 

 whence we are otten fupply'd with 

 rew Kinds, it being a large Genus 

 of Plants : And it is very remark- 

 able, that there is not a ling'e Spe- 

 cies of this Genus that is European j 

 fo that before America was diico- 

 ver'd, we were wholly unacquainted 

 with thefe Plants. But altho' they 

 are not originally of our own 

 Growth; yet are they become lb 

 familiar with our Climate, as to 

 thrive and increafe full as well as if 

 they were at Home j (fome of the 



c o 



very late flowering Kinds excepted, 

 which require a longer Summer 

 than we generally enjoy, to bring 

 them to Perfe6lion) : and many of 

 them are now fo plentiful in Eng- 

 dlan, that Perfons unacquainted 

 with the Ilidory of thefe Plants, 

 would imagine rhetri at lead to 

 have been InhaUtants of this Ifland 

 many hundred Years i particularly 

 the Jerufalem Artichoke, which 

 tho' it doth not produce Seeds In 

 our Climate, yet doth fo m.ultiply 

 by its knobbed Roots, as when 

 once well fix'd in a Garden, is not 

 ealily to be rooted out again. 



The fird feven Sorts being An- 

 nuals, mud be fown every Spring 

 in a Bed of good light Earth i and 

 when the Plants are come up about 

 three Inches high, mud be tram- 

 planted into Nurlery-beds, at about 

 eight or ten Inches Didance every 

 way, where they may continue until 

 they are a Foot high, when they 

 mud be carefully taicen up with a 

 Ball of Earth, and tranfpianted into 

 the Middi'- of large Borders, or 

 intermix'd in Bofquets of large 

 growing Plants, oblerving to wa- 

 ter them until they are well rooted^ 

 after which Time they will re- 

 quire no farther Care but to clear 

 them from Weeds.

 which flower later upon the Side- 

 branches ?.re neither fo fair, nor
