In whatever pofition it be found neceflary to 

 plant Evergreen trees and fhrubs, care muft be 

 taken to procure the requisite foils, if they are 

 not naturally prefent. 



TREATMENT OF NEW PLANTED DECIDUOUS 

 ORNAMENTAL TREES. 



Late-planted hedge-row, and ornamental single 

 trees, mould now be examined, to fee if they are 

 windwaved, which they are liable to be from their 

 height. Such as are found windwaved are to be 

 placed upright, and fo held till dry earth be trin- 

 died in around them at the roots, and made mo- 

 derately firm, by beating it downwards with the 

 end of a flick. 



If the fituations in which thefe or the Ever- 

 greens have been planted, be naturally gravelly 

 or porous ; and if dry weather fucceed, they will 

 require occafional waterings ; and more efpecial- 

 ly, if the plants are of large fize. This attention 

 will conduce, not only to keep the plants alive, 

 but to give them more strength and bolder ver- 

 dure.
