‘different Tree for thefe; 
Flowers be open to fo much of the Sun. This 
is always to be ufed in bright Weather; but when | 
it is cloudy, the Air -being more Ae: admitted 
is an Advantage. 
The Glaffes muft be fupported at a moderate 
Height above the Flowers, that they may not 
¢hoak them; nor, on the other Hand, admit the | 
Dews too freely under them: and the Flower muft 
be kept at fuch a Diftance from the Stick, to | 
which the Stem is tyed up, that it may ipread out | 
freely, and not touch it. 
From Time to Time let them be watered, cad

This Week is a very proper Time for inoculat~ 
ing fome of the delicate Kinds of Rofes, which 
5 not freely produce Suckers. 
The fitteft Stocks are thofe which will fhoot. the 
moft freely, and of all thefe the Francfort. Rofe is 
the beft. The Damafk Bry be ufed, pad fome } 
other of the free Shooters, but there i is none bet- 
ter than the firlt we have named. , 
Value elfe, for the Flowers feldom open well ; 
but ‘it communicates nothing of that Property to 
! the new. Kind, tho’ it gives all the expected, Ad- 
"vantage of free Shooting. 
The yellow Rofe is very proper to be budded 
on the Francfort Kind ;.and when planted in a 
clear Air, and good Expofure, will open its dou- 
ble Flowers in Perfection. 
The Cleannefs of the Shoots in this. Een 
Kind, is one ‘confiderable Advantage ; ; for the 
Rofes of thefe fine Sorts are very tender to inocu- 
late, and every one knows, in fuch Cafes, how 
‘important it is to have a good fmooth and even 
Stock : for the reft, the common Care of Inocu- 
lation, and nothing more, is required. The E- 
vening of a cloudy Day is beft for the Purpofe; 
and a great deal of Care muft be ufed in cutting 
off the Buds, and fixing them according to the 
Methods we have directed.

The Management of the Nv URS E RY this Week. 
HIS Week it will be ‘proper’ to inoculate 
fome of the earlier Peaches and Ne¢tarines. 
Thofe Fruits are nearly allied to one another, and 
the fame Stock ferves for both.. They may be very. 
“well ‘propagated upon the Mufcle Plum and the 
white Pear Plum, but the beft is the green Gauge. 
Thefe Stocks may be raifed either from the 
Stones or from Layers ; but, to {peak from Ex- 
thofe from Stones are better. 
The. 
Five and Twenty Days after the Operation, is 
the Time for examining which have taken, and 
which not. Thofe which then appear plump and 
fair, may. be trufted. as having fucceeded, and 
the Bandage muft be loofened to prevent Strangu- 
lation. 
: Fhe Slowing Spring the Stock muft be cut off 
a Finger’s Length above the Bud, and the Shoot 
» rifing from the Bud muft then be tied up to this 
Green Gauge Stock fuits much better than any } Part of the Stock that is left above, to fecure it 
all will be produced by rebudding them upon the | 
vigorous and healthy Kinds of Peaches. Thofe 
upon the Plum Stocks are perhaps the longer 
lived Trees ; but thefe mig the: beft Fruit, and “¢ 
the trueft Flavour. : 
The Stalks fhould be of two. Years’ Grewedh 
when they are budded, and the great “Article is a 
good Choice of the Cuttings: thefe  muft “be 
taken from Trees of the Kind’ defired to’be’ pro- _ 
pagated, and from fuch as are in themfelves 
healthy, vigorous, 
voured, and has in Perfection all the Matks: and 
Characters of the Kind. 
Let the Evening of a cloudy Day be chofen 
for the Purpofe; and every thing being prepared 
for the Work, as we have directed under a former 
Inftance, let no more Cuttings be taken off, than 
can be ufed at that Time: and let all’ the Expe- 
dition be made in doing it, that is confiftent with 
the neceffary Care and Exactnefs, 
remarkable for bearing a. 
large Quantity of Fruit, and fuch as ‘is well fla: | 
but the fineft Fruits of | from Accidents. : 
When the Trees. are to be planted out into the 
Garden, a proper Soil muft be prepared for the 
Borders, and they muft be allowed a good Diftance. 
Neither of thefe Articles are fufficiently obferved, 
‘June. 
It is of little —_—_— 
and *tis for that Reafon’ our Fruit in’ general in 
England, is much inferior to what i it is capable of 
being in our Climate. 
The Breadth of the Border is the ereat Article 4 
for though the Roots will run under Gravel- 
Walks, and even into the Ground beyond, yet it 
is in the Border itfelf they find their great Nou- 
rifhment, and {pread their numerous “wlefol Fi: 
bres. 
The Breadth of this fhould be proportioned to 
the intended Height of the Tree: the greater 
Quantity of Wood is to be nourithed, the moré 
fhould be the Compafs. It is a good general 
Rule, when the Trees are intended to be planted 
at moderate Diftances, to allow the Breadth of. 
the Border to be equal to the Height of the 
Wall.
