* The feeds of feveral kinds of annual flowers 

 may now be fown on w^rm borders to ftand 

 the winter, that they may flower early the fol- 

 lowing fummer, whereby they will be much 

 ftronger, and produce a greater quantity of 

 flowers, than thofe which are fown in the 

 fpring, and their feeds will conftantly ripen 

 better. Of thefe are the Sweet Pea, Venus 

 Navelwort, Dwarf Annual Stock, Lobel's 

 Catchfly, Xeranthemums, Sweet Sultan, Ce- 

 rinthe of three or four forts, Myofotis, Chry- 

 fanthemum, Adonis, Meadia, Cape Horn 

 Pea, Indian Scabious, and moft forts of umbel- 

 liferous plants. 



You may now propagate the Double Scarlet 

 Lychnis, Double Rofe Campion, Double Rock- 

 et, Gentianella, Double Ragged Robin, Batche- 

 lors Button Red and White, Double Catchfly, 

 and Canada Leonurus, by flipping and parting of 

 their roots 3 but thefe flips fhould be planted in 

 fliady borders, or otberwife they mufl. be duly 

 fhaded every day in dry hot weather with mats, 

 and conftantly fupplied with water, until they 

 have taken root : thefe flips will make very 

 good plants (provided they are carefully plant- 

 ed and duly watered) by the beginning or mid- 

 dle of October; when they may be either 

 planted into pots, or the borders of the flower- 

 S 4 garden.
