but fowing in the place where it is to grow (as directed 

 for the lupine) is the belt way. 



Mulleins prefer a light foil, but like a north border ; 

 and the borage leaved being very low, is proper for an 

 edging in a cool fhady fituation. 



Orpine, this, as all fucculent plants, fhould have a dry 

 foil and fituation, and not often watered. 



Paflion flower fhould be planted againft a warm wall, 

 where it may have room to fpread, as it is a very tree 

 mooter. The forts are numerous, (for green-houfe 

 and Jlove) but only this well fuits open culture. In 

 fine fituations, and the fouthern parts of England, there 

 are two more, however, that may do abroad. Prune 

 it about Michaelmas, leaving the fhoots from two to 

 four feet long, as the ftrength of the plants, or room, 

 diftates, and a foot afunder. Before the frofts come, 

 cover the roots, a yard round, with dry litter ; and re- 

 new it with dry, when afterwards it gets much and 

 long wet. The branches alfo fhould be covered with 

 a mat (a thin one, and not over clofe) before jevere 

 frofl fets in ; but uncover as foon in fpring as may be; 

 or, in Ihort, in mild weather, on days through the 

 winter, if not too much trouble. This flower has 

 been fometimes trained to a Itake, in which cafe, 

 fhorter pruning mufl take place to keep it down. It 

 bears upon the young fhoots, which fhould be regu- 

 larly trained in. The flowers are the glory only of a 

 day, but generally a great number are produced in fuc- 

 ceflion. It takes readily from cuttings, of about feven or 

 eight inches long, cut in March or April, and planted in a 

 good foil, kept cool by water, and fhaded from much fun. 



Pink, the forts are numerous, for feed is conftantly 

 producing new varieties, occafionally one among many 

 that vies with its famed predeceffors in beauty, and 

 whofe fuperior excellence is not neglected by the fiorift* 

 He gives it a name as f ncy directs, and it is enrolled
