New Principles of Gardening. 
(x.) Of JesseEmINEsS, there are three Kinds, vz. the 
White, the Yellow, and the Perfian. The common White 
Jeffemine is a free Grower, and refifts the Severity of our 
Winters: It produces its beautiful fragrant Flowers in Fune, 
and continues in Bloom till September: "Twill grow in any 
loamy Land, and is increafed from Layers laid down, or Cut- 
tings planted in September, wherein obferve, that in Confide- 
ration of their Roots ftriking at their Joints, therefore be care- 
ful to bury two or three in the Ground to either Layer or Cut- 
ting, and they will fucceed to your Defire. 
The Beauty of this Plant is fo great, that in my humble 
Opinion, a Garden cannot well have too many of them. And 
as this is a Plant of Liberty, ic muft therefore be planted at the 
Bottom of Standard-Trees, in Groves, Walks, Sc. and even in 
Hedges alfo, whereia “twill interfperfe itsfelf with its delightful 
Blofloms, and plea.ant Odour. 
And altho’ it has been the Praétice of Breeding this Plant up- 
in headed Plants, yet I cannot commend it, feeing that it naturally 
hates to be either confined, or {tump’d with Sheers. 
The Spanifh White Jeffemine may be grafted _on this common 
White: Tis a fweet delightful Flower; as alfo are the Ltahan 
and Portugal Jeflemines, whofe Bloffoms are very large and. 
beautiful. : 
The Perfian Jeflemine is a beautiful Shrub: Its Flowers are 
Purple, and will endure the Winter’s Frofts. 
The Yellow. Jeffemine, is alfo a very agreeable Shrub, and will 
endure the Severity of our Climate... = 
(2.) Honey-Sucktes ; of which, there are feveral Kinds, 
as the Ever-green, the Early-red, the Late-Whire and Red, and 
the Scarlet-flower’d Honey-Suckles. They, in general, are in- 
creafed from. Layers, or Cuttings, as the Jeflemine. They are 
all Lovers of Liberty, and when bred up in headed Plants, make 
a moft terrible Figure all the Winter. 
They delight in the Shade, and love to clamber on other 
Trees. They are Natives.of the Woods, of a quick Growth, but 
incapable of fupporting their own Bodies, and therefore borrow 
the Ute of their neighbouring Trees to affilt them therein. 
And as their Bioffoms perfume the Air with their delight- 
Odours all the Summer, ’tis impoTib’e that a Garden can have 
too many, being carefully planted, fo as to run up Standard- 
Trees, Hedges, c. as before is faid of the Jeflemine.
