FRA'XINUS. The Ash. (Fraxinus is 

 the Latin for an ash-tree. Nat. orcl.,

 yamia '2-Dicecia.) 



Hardy deciduous trees, with green flowers. 

 Seeds ripe in October, then to be collected, and 

 stored in thin layers in the ground, mixed with 

 sar fly soil, and turned once or twice during the 

 winter ; the seeds sifted from the soil, and sown 

 in March or April. Most of the species may 

 also be propagated by seeds, and the most dis- 

 tinct of them ; as also the varieties by grafting. 

 Dry deep loam makes them produce the best tim- 

 ber. The Weeping, the Silver, and Golden- 

 barked varieties of F, excelsior are interesting.
