99. Mibes sanguineum, the red-flowered currant, 9d. 



100. Ribes aureum, the yellow-flowered currant, 9d. 



All the crosses marked in the plan, which are not numbered, are 

 for different sorts of roses; and the number of these may be in- 

 creased at pleasure, diminishing the number of herbaceous plants 

 in proportion, according to the taste of the owner ; 6d., 25 plants. 



The following is a list of the Climbing Shrubs for covering the 

 privy, summer-house, a part of the boundary wall and porch, 

 and part of the walls of the house : — 



101. Caprifolium flexuosum, the Chinese honeysuckle, Is. 6d., 



4 plants. 



102. Common twining honeysuckles of sorts, 6^., 6 plants.

Shrubs and roses, 108, - - - - 



Climbing shrubs, 26 - 



Herbaceous plants, annuals, and biennials, 546 j and, supposing 

 the greater number of them to be annuals, they may be pur- 

 chased for _ _ _ . 



According to the above enumeration, there need not be a 

 dozen duplicates in the garden ; for, though there are some of the 

 species repeated (such as the laurustinus, the Cydonia japonica, 

 the Chinese rose, &c.), different varieties of each species maybe 

 chosen. The herbaceous plants may be selected on the same 

 principle ; so that, in this small garden of not quite a quarter of 

 an acre, nearly 800 different kinds of ornamental plants may be 

 exhibited. 



As the trees and shrubs are not crowded together, no thinning 

 out will be required for at least ten or twelve years, provided the
