from their roots, if they are not annually taken 

 oft, will fpread over the ground to a great dif- 

 tance, and make a thicket -, but will not flower, 

 near ib well, as when the trees are kept clear 

 and fingle. Thefe fuckers, if wanted, may be 

 planted in the nurfery ; where, in two or three 

 years time, they will get ftrength enough to be 

 tranfplanted where they are to remain. 



Where there is any ground which is de- 

 figned to be laid out for pleafure, either in a 

 flower-garden or w^ildernefs, which cannot be 

 got ready for planting before the fpring, there 

 ihould be no time loft at this feafon, in prepar- 

 ing of it, that it may be expofed to the froft in 

 winter, which will mellow it ; befides, if the 

 froft fhould continue long, it may prevent 

 working till the feafon is too far fpent for plant- 

 ing in the fpring, whereby a whole feafon will 

 be loft. 



The beginning of this month plant fome 

 cuttings of the Double Chryfanthemums, both 

 white and yellow, in pots filled with good earthy 

 and place them in a ftiady fituation, obferving 

 to water them frequently, if the feafon proves 

 dry. Thcfe cuttings will foon take root 3 and, 

 if they are placed under a common frame, where 

 they may be protedled from froft in winter, and 

 have as much free air as poftible in mild wea- 

 ther.
