 &c. of common earth, any time from Fc- 

 bruary or March till May ; but the principal 

 feafon for fowing the main fupply is March 

 and April, and in moft forts one fowing is 

 fufficient to furnifh a conftant fucceflion of 

 flowering from June or July till O<ftober; 

 though fome quick-flowering kinds of ihort 

 duration may be fowed two or three times, 

 from March till June or July, to have a longer
