The feventfi Sort is oiily a Va- 

 riety of the fixth, fi'om which it 

 differs in having a variegated Leaf j 

 this Difference it commonly retains 

 jfirom Seeds, which is what few o~

 much refemble a Bird's Foot) than 

 for any particular Beauty of the

 Variety. This may be propagated 

 in the fame Manner as the two for^ 

 mer, and is alio annual, as they are.
