Delphininm. 
Wl Arks-heels are of feveral ores; as well double as fingle ; yet 
there is but one kind worth the preferving; which is that 
called 
, Delphininm elatins flore pleno. 
D ouble upright Larks-heels have {mall jagged leaves, tall upright 
ftalks, branched at the top; and bearing mariy fine double flow- 
ers, inform like to the Rofe-Celombine , infeveral Plants of oe 
entire colours, as purple, blew, Ath-colour;: Rofe-colour, pale 
blu(h; or whites thefe are the moft ufual colours, yet fometimes fomeé 
roots will bring flowers that are ftriped and variegated with blew and 
white, and often with fome leaves blew, and others purple ; after the 
flowers are paft, the feeds are contained in {mall horned pods, which 
are black and round, the which being fowed will bring fome Plants 
with fingle; but moft with double flowers; the roots perifh in 
Winter, 
"They flower according to the time of fowing them, fooner or Ia- 
tet,in Fuly or Awguft, but I have often had Plants that have come up 
from feeds fallen out of the pods before Winter, which have conti- 
riued and born fair double flowers in Fume following, and turnifhed me - 
with mueh good feed, : 
The ufual time to fow thefe feeds is the beginning of April, but to 
get good feeds, which is a chiet confideration inthefe Plants, I ufu- 
ally fow fome as foonas they are ripe, in fome place where they may 
be deferided from lotig frofts in Winter, arid one of thefe Winter 
plants is worth ten of thofe raifed ir the Spritig, arid will yield more 
ood feed; yet int fome kindly Somers, thofe of the Spring will feed 
reafotiable well, Next unto thefé two other Plants are ranked, in te- 
fpect their dowers refemble the fingle Lar ks-heels, the firlk is called 
Nafturtium Indicum. 
Ndian Creffes, or yellow Larks-heels, fpread iftto miany lorig tray- 
ling branches, four or five foot long, which, unlefs fupported, lie 
oft che ground, and take up much room ; the leaves are {mooth and 
round, the flowers of a fair yellow colour, in tafhion foinething like 
afingle Larks-beel, but the leaves ftand plainer, and fome of them aré 
freaked with red ; the flower isfo well known, that I need not to - 
be cutious in defcibing it for few Gardens of any nove are without
