1 68 7he Garde7urs Kalendar. May. 



Work io he done in the Green-House 

 and Stove. 



About the middle or latter end of this 

 xnonth, if the weather be fettled and the 

 nights warm, you fliould bring forth your 

 Orange trees, and (if poffible) take the ad- 

 vantage of a fhow^er of rain for this work, 

 which will waih the duft from the furfaces 

 of their leaves, and greatly refrefh them : you 

 fiiould at this time (if you have not before 

 done it) take out the earth from the top of 

 the pots or tubs, and fill them up with frefli 

 rich earth, which will greatly encourage their 

 flowering, and caufe them to make vigorous 

 (hoots ; and if their fcems have not been 

 cleaned the preceding month, it fiiould now 

 be done ; this is only meant for fiich trees as 

 are not removed out of the tubs or pots the 

 j'ame year. 



You may now inarch Oranges, Jafmines* 

 Pomegranates, and other tender exotick trees, 

 cbferving to place them v/here they may be 

 fneltercd from ftrong vv^inds, Vv'hick would dif- 

 place the inarched (hoots, if they were too 

 fpufh expofcd thereto.
