found that feveral things will do fo, which have been 

 ufed to be houfed, even in ftoves. 



Gmindfel tree, or ploughman's fpikenard, rauff have 

 a friug lituation abroad, as hard frofts are apt to cut it; 

 and it it is potted and houfed, it muft have a great deal 

 of air, as it only needs protection in fevere weather. 

 This is an argument for trying all things abroad, of 

 which there is a chance of doing well, for they cannot 

 have the air they require in a green -houfe, where are 

 Co many phnts of a tenderer nature. 



Hares-ear is a handfome fhrub for the Jruth front of 

 a plantation ; — fomewhat tender. 



H.-ncxfuekU, evergreen, allow it a flickered fituation, 

 and ler. it be as mucli as poffible in fight. 



Mom- trefoil is a very beautiful evergreen, flowering 

 from Ma\ to OrJoher\ but as it is tender, mult have a 

 dry warm function, and then a little attention- of cover 

 in fevere frolh may fecure it. 



Pbillyrea in all its varieties, though rather a rambling 

 grow er, is conudered as one oi the Handing ornaments 

 of our ihrubberies ; yet it has beauty in neither (tower; 

 nor frail, as is the cafe with fome other plants, (parti- 

 cularly evergreens) being retained only for their foliage; 

 The jhiped fort Should have a (beltered Tituation, as 

 indeed is, in a meafure, neceifary to all variegated 

 plants, as their ornamental nature, in this refpeit. is 

 che confequence ot hereditary weaknefs. 



Periwinkle is a pretty under fhrubby evergreen, if 

 properly kept up to the lower part of paies, or a wail, 

 or the larger fort may be grained to a low itake, or 

 even kept as a little bufh. It i3 very well to confine 

 the roots (being apt to run) by flaty {tones, or tiles : 

 It fucceeds well in {hade and muifture* 



PurjJane tree, the Spanifh is not fo hardy as the 

 common fort, but will generally furvive our winters, 

 in good fkeltered fituauons. 



Ragwort, this fort (as all the others) ufed to be 

 houfed in wimer ; but will fumd abroad m a warn*:.
