There are fome other Varieties 

 of this Plant which occur in Bota- 

 nick Authors ; but thefe here men- 

 tioned, are all the Sorts I have yet 

 feen in the Englifi Gardens. The 

 firft Sort is found upon the Sea 

 Coafts in fome Parts of England; 

 but if fown in a Garden, will grow 

 very well; this is a perennial Plant, 

 the Roots abiding, if in a poor, dry 

 Soil, two or three Years j but when 

 planted in a moift, or very rich 

 Soil, it feldom continues longer 

 than one Year, efpeciaily if it flow- 

 ers the firft Summer. 



The fecond Sort Mr. Ray found 

 growing amongft Corn, betwixt 

 Swafham and Burwell in Ca^nbridge- 

 flnre. 



The third and fourth Sorts were 

 brought from Abroad ; thefe Three 

 are annual Plants, and either fliould 

 be fown every Spring, or their 

 Seeds fuffered to fcatter therafelves, 

 for the Plants will arife in Autumn 

 firom the Seeds which fall, and if 

 the Winter does not prove too fharp, 

 they will abide without any Care, 

 and flower earlier the fucceeding 

 Spring: Thefe Plants, tho' there is 

 not much Beauty in them, yet may 

 be permitted to have a Place in large 

 Gardens for Variety, efpeciaily as

they require very little Culture, 

 They delight moft in a warm, light 

 Soil, but will grow in almoft any 

 Soil, if it be not over -dunged. 



GLYCYRRHIZA; Liquorice. 

 The Chara^ers arej 



It hath a papilionaceous Flower; 

 the Tointal which arifes from the 

 Empalement becomes a> fljort Tod, 

 containing [ever al Kidney-fljafd Seeds ; 

 the Leaves are placed by Fairs join'd 

 to the Mid-rib, and are terminated 

 by an odd Lobe, 



The Species arej 



1. Glycyrrhiza i filiquofa, vel 

 Germanica. C. B. P. Common |j 

 Liquorice. * 



2. Glycyrrhiza; capite echinato. 

 C. B. F. Rough-podded Liquo- 

 rice. 



The firft of thefe Plants is what 

 the People cultivate for Ufe; the 

 other being only prefdrved in Bo- 

 tanick Gardens, amongft Ibme other 

 Varieties, which Plant I ft»all pafs 

 over with only naming, and pro- 

 ceed to give an Account of the Cul- 

 ture of the firft Sort, which is the 

 only one ufed. 



This Plant delights in a rich, 

 light, fandy Soil, which fhould be 

 three Foot deep at leaft ; for the 

 greateft Advantage confifts in the 

 Length of the Roots: The greateft 

 Quantity of Liquorice which is 

 propagated in England, is about 

 Fontefraci in Torkfljire, and Godliman 

 in Surrey ; though of late Years 

 there hath been a great deal culti- 

 vated in the Gardens near London: 

 The Ground in which you intend 

 to plant Liquorice, fhould be well 

 dug and dunged the Year before 

 you plant it, that the Dung may 

 be perfe6fiy rotted and mix'd with 

 the Earth, otherwife it will be apt 

 to ftop the Roots from running 

 down ; and before you plant it, the 

 Ground fliould be dug three Spades 



deep.
