Ip hath a L'dy Flo-aver , compci\i 

 for the mojl part of jix Leaves, 

 jl?afd Jqmeivhat like a Pitcher j the 

 point at f tchich arlfes in the Middle 

 cf the Plo-p:er, furrounded tfith Sta- 

 mina, afterwards becomes an oblong 

 ^Fmitj rahich opens into three Parts, 



T u 



is divided into three Cellsy and full 

 of plain Seeds, tiphich rejl upon one 

 another in a double Row. To thefe 

 Marks mufi be added, a coated Root, 

 with Fibres on the lower Part. 



It would be to little Purpofe to 

 enumerate the feveral Varieties of 

 thefe Flowers, which may be feen 

 in one good Garden, fince there is 

 no End of their Numbers j and 

 what fome People may value at a 

 confiderable Rate, others rejedl ; 

 and as there are annually a great 

 Quantity of new Flowers obtain'd 

 from Breeders, fo thofe which are 

 old, if they have not very good 

 Properties to recommend them, 

 are thrown out and deipis'd : I 

 fnail therefore point out the Pro- 

 perties of a ^ood Tulipy according' 

 to the Charaderifticks of the btrft 

 Florifts oi^ the prefent Age. i. It 

 fhculd have a tall, ftrong Stem. 

 2 . The Flower fiiould conlill: of iix 

 Leaves, three within, and three 

 without j the former ought to be 

 larger than the latter. 3. Their 

 Bottom Diould be propoition'd to 

 their Top, and their upper Part 

 fliould be rounded oif, r^nd not ter- 

 minate in a Point. 4. Thefe Leaves, 

 when open'd, fliould neither turn 

 inward nor bend outward, but ra- 

 ther ftand eredt, and the Flower 

 fliould be of a middling Size, nei- 

 ther over large nor too fmall. f. The 

 Stripes fliOuld be fmall and regular, 

 arifmg quite from the Bottom of 

 the Flower ■■> for if there are any 

 Remains of the former felf-colour'd 

 Bottom, the Flower is in Danger 

 ©f loJing its Stripes again. The 

 Chives fliould not be yellow, but 

 of a brown Colour. When a Flow- 

 er has all thefe Properties, it is 

 efleem'd a good one. 



Tulips are generally divided into 

 three ClaflTes, according to the r 

 Seafons of Flov/eringj as, i. Pr^-
