ORNAMENTAL PLANTATIONS. 



THIS is a period of the feafon when weeds get 

 very rapidly into a feed-bearing ftate, It will 

 therefore be ufeful to examine all ornamental plant- 

 ations, both thofe which have, and thofe which 

 have not, been cropped with green crops. Pull 

 and carry off all feeding weeds. This labour 

 will be richly rewarded, by diminifhing the num- 

 ber of weeds in the fucceeding feafons. 



Continue the pruning of plantations, and of 

 fmgle trees, wherever necefTary. 



Go on with the planting out of all Evergreens; 

 as Holly, Laurel, Lauruftinus, Arbutus, Rhodo- 

 dendron, and the like. See that thefe be lifted 

 with care, and have proper foils to fet them a* 

 going. 



Wherever there is occafion to plant Firs in pits 

 or in fallow ground, it may now be done. Be 

 careful to plant in damp weather ; and fee that no 

 earth be fhaken fronvthcir roots. 



Continue the preparation of grounds for future 

 plantations, as adyifed in the preceding months.
