 the Spaniards fend is much richer in co- 

 lour, and more valuable. 

 This grows in Fgypt, and in Senegal. 

 In Egypt, from whence the fced^ may be pro- 

 cured. 



This is reckoned the moll durable timber we 

 know. The repofitories of the Mummies 

 found in 13gypt are nuide of this timber.

 if they had the method of curing them as 

 in 'i'udtey. 



The cuttings of thia vine might be procured 



from Zant. 

 This is worth trying in our fouthern colonies, 



where the heats arc violent in the lummer. 



It is common in our nurfcry gardens. 

 Thefc v^ould grow to great periedlion in our 



fouthern colonies. 

 This fhrub requires a rocky foil to grow in, 



as it is about Marfeiiles and Toulon. 

 This tree would thrive extremely well in our 



fouthoi-n provinces, and yield a pi-ofitablc 

 . article in their blofToms. Plants of this 



kind are to be bought from moll of our 



nurfery men. 



'Tis poffible this valuable plant may be found
