tlie Buds. The beft Scafdri for 

 biidding of Rofes is ih Jtine; the 

 M:mncr of doing it, being the fame 

 as for Fru it-Trees, need not be re- 

 peated here. 



If you wcuM prop3gate them 

 from Suckers, they iVioald be ta- 

 ken off annually in October, arid 

 tranfplanted out either into a Nur~ 

 fcry in Rows (as hath been diredt- 

 ,cd for feveral other Sorts of flow- 

 ering Shrubs) or into the Places 

 where they are to remain j for if 

 they are permitted to ftand upori 

 the Roots of the old Plants more 

 than one Ycdr, they grow woody, 

 and do not form ib good Roots 

 as if planted oat the fi.rfl Year, 

 asd fo there is mere Danger of 

 their not faccceding. 



But the beft Method to obtairi 

 good rooted Plants, is to lay down 

 the young Brarichei in Autilmn, 

 which will take good Root by the 

 Aiitumn following [efpecially if 

 they are water'd in very dry Wea- 

 ther i) when they may be taken 

 from the old Plants, and tranfplan- 

 ted where they are to remain. 

 Thefe Plants may. be tranfplanted 

 any time from Ociob'sr to April ,• 

 but wben they are defign'd to 

 flower ftrong the firft Year after 

 |»linting, they fhould be planted 

 early J though, as I faid before, if 

 they are planted late in the Spring, 

 it v/ill caufe theri to flower in 

 Autumrij provided they do not fuf- 

 fer by Drought. 



Moft of thefe Sorts do delight 

 \ih a rich rnoift Soil, and an open 

 Situation, in which they will pro- 

 duce a greater Quantity of Flow- 

 ers, and thole much fairer than 

 Vvhen they are upon a. dry Soil, or 

 in a jhady Situation. The pruning 

 which tl>ey require, is only to have 

 their dead Wood .cut out, and the 

 backers clear'd cff, which fhould 



id 



be done every Autumri; and if 

 there are any very luxuriant Bran-> 

 ches which draw the Nourifhment 

 from the other Parts of the Plant, 

 they fliould be taken out or flior- 

 ten'd, to caufe it to produce more 

 Branches, if there be occafion for 

 thcrti to fupply a Vacancy j but 

 you muft avoid crouding theni 

 with Branches, which is as injuri- 

 ous to thefe Plants as to Fruit- 

 Trees j for if the Branches have 

 not an equal Benefit ot the*^ Suri 

 and Air, they will hot produce 

 their Flowers fo ftrong, nor in £6 

 great Plenty as when they are more 

 open and better e:j:pos'd to the Suri, 

 £o that the Air may circulate the 

 more freely between them^
