I need not here repeat the Method of laying down the Lay- 
ers, planting the Cuttings, or fowing the Seeds, of the moft com- 
mon Sorts, becaufe that the fame Method is to be obferved 
herein, as dire€ted for the Ever-Greens, Sc. But for the un-

Of the Tulip-Tree; its Culture, &c. 
Uy VHIS beautiful Tree, though rank’d amongft the Shrubs, 
in regard -to its Flowers, yet ’tis a Tree of a vety 
great Growth. 
In the Lord Peterborough’s Wildernefs, at Parfon’s-Green, 
near Fulham in Middlefex, is growing a molt beautiful and 
ftately Tree of this Kind, and of as great a Height as moft 
Timber-Trees. ”Tis an Inhabitant of the Wood, which is de- 
monftrated by its not thriving in an open Expofure, and is a 
beautiful Tree to compofe Part of a Grove of Foreft Trees. 
The Leaves are like the Maple, and of a pleafant Green; and 
its Flowers like unto a Tulip, from which ’tis called the 
Tulip-Tree, which are produced at the Ends of the Branches- 
The Petals of the Flower are mighty beautiful, being of a 
yellow Ground, varigated with a delightful Red. 
The Fruit which fucceed thofe curious Bloffoms, areof a c0- 
nical Form, but never ripens in England. 
And as this noble Tree is a Native of Carolina and Virginia, 
(at which Places its Seed ripens very well,) ’tis from thence 
we muft receive the Seed that we propagate our Plants from in 
Englan
