KALENDARIUM HORTENSE 



years after, especially the Tulips, therefore disturb 

 not their beds, and let them be under some warm place 

 shaded yet, till the heats are past, lest the seeds dry ; 

 only the Hepaticas, and Primeroses may be sow'd in 

 some less expos'd Beds. 



Now, about Bartholomew-tide, is the only secure 

 season for removing and laying your perenial Greens, 

 Oranges, Lemmons, Myrtils, Phillyreas, Oleanders, 

 Jasmines, Arbutus, and other rare Shrubs, as Pome- 

 granads, Roses, and whatever is most obnoxious to 

 frosts, taking the shoots and branches of the past Spring 

 and pegging them down in a very rich earth and soil 

 perfectly consum'd, water them upon all occasions 

 during the Summer ; and by this time twelve-moneth 

 they will be ready to remove, Transplanted in fit earth, 

 set in the shade, and kept moderately moist, not over 

 wet, lest the young fibers rot ; after three weeks set 

 them in some more airy place, but not in the Sun till 

 fifteen days more ; vide our Observation in April, and 

 May, for the rest of these choice Directions.
