Thefe Plants are propagated hit 

 fbwing their 'Seeds upon a mode-.- 

 rate Hot-bed in the Spring j and 

 when they are come up, they mufi; 

 be each planted in a Separate fmall 

 Pot, fiird with frefh, light Earth, 

 and plung'd into a frefli Hot-bed, 

 obferving to water, and fhade them 

 until they have taken Root ^ aftec
