Kerry in JreUnd-y which is the only 

 Place in which it has been found 

 growing wild in thele Parts of 

 Europe. But altho' thefe Roots are 

 brought over chiefly for Medicinal 

 Ufe, yet are they worthy of being 

 cultivated in every good Garden, 

 for the Beauty ot their Flowers, 

 \)vhich make a very handfome Ap- 

 pearance when they are ftrong 

 Roots. 



The beft Timetotranfplant thcfe 

 Roots is in May, when their Leaves 

 are decay'd 3 or if the Roots are 

 brought from abroad, if they can 

 be procured firm at that Seaibn, 

 or a little after, they lliould be 

 planted in Pots of light, fandy Earth, 

 and placed in the Windows ot the 

 Green-houfc, where, if they are 

 blowing Roots, they will flower 

 the yiily following. 



Thele Plants mufi: be prefer ved 

 in Shelter, during the Wmtcr Sea- 

 ibn, becaule if their Leaves are 

 deflroy'd by Froft in Winter, the 

 Roots are fubjcdi: to perilb i but in 

 Summer they fhould be exposed to 

 the open Air, and in dry Weather 

 they mull be frequently water'd, 

 efpecially during the Seafon their 

 Leaves are on, or that they are in 

 Flower } but when the Kcots arc 

 in a State of Reft, they fliould have 

 but little Moifture, for Wet at that 

 Time will ret them. They are 

 pretty hardy, and do only require 

 to be flickered from hard Froil ; 

 but muil have as much free Air as 

 poiTibie in open Weather.
