fquare at lead : it will agree better 

 with an open Situation than the other 

 two Sorts. 



The fourth Sort of Sorrel is a Va- 

 riety from the common Sort, which 

 often arifes from the fame Seeds, as 

 doth alfo that with white Flowers j 

 fo that they do not deferve the No- 

 tice which the Writers on Botany 

 have taken of them. 



The fifth, fixth, feventh, eighth, 

 ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth 

 Sorts are all of them very hardy 

 Plants, and may be propagated by 

 Seeds, in the fame manner as the 

 common Sort ; with this Difference 

 only, of allowing the large Sorts 

 more room ; for the fixth and fe- 

 venth Sorts grow very large, and 

 therefore require to be left a Foot 

 afunder, or more. The Roots abide 

 feveral Years, and may be parted at 

 Michaelmas to propagate their Kinds; 

 tho 1 they all fucceed much better by 

 Seeds, which they ufually perfect in 

 this Country. 



The thirteenth and fourteenth 

 Sorts grow wild on dry Banks, and 

 on the Sides of Gravel-pits, in di- 

 vers Parts of England, and are rarely 

 admitted to have Place in a Garden. 

 Thefe multiply exceedingly by their 

 Roots, which creep very far under- 

 ground ; fo that they mould not be 

 fuffered to grow near other Plants. 

 The thirteenth Sore is placed in the 

 Catalogue of Simples, in the Col- 

 lege-Difpenfatory ; but, I believe, is 

 feldom ordered in Medicine. 



The fifteenth and fixttenth Sorts 

 are annual, and are rarely culti- 

 vated, except in Botanic Gardens, 

 for the fake of Variety : thefe may 

 be propagated by fowing their Seed 

 on a Bed of light Earth in March ; 

 but they do not bear tranfplanting 

 "well ; therefore they fhould always 

 be fown where they are defigned to 

 remain. In June thefe Pkoto will 



flower, and their Seeds will ripen m 



Auguji. 



The feventeenth Sort grows wild, 

 in Torkjhire, and feveral other North- 

 ern Counties of England and Scot- 

 land, from whence it is often pro- 

 cured for the fake of Variety ; but 

 it doth not thrive well in the South- 

 ern Parts : it mould have a fhady Si- 

 tuation, and a moift ftrong Soil. 



The eighteenth Sort will grow to 

 the Height of twelve or fourteen 

 Feet, and become woody, fo as to 

 have the Appearance of a Tree. 

 This is preferved in Green- houfes in 

 Winter, by Perfons who are curious 

 in collecting Exotic Plants. It may 

 be eafily propagated by planting 

 Cuttings in a Bed of light Earth, 

 during any of the Summer-months, 

 obferving to water and made them 

 until they have taken Root, when 

 they mould be taken up, and plant- 

 ed in Pots filled with freih Earth, and 

 placed in a (hady Situation, until 

 they have taken new Root ; after 

 which time they may be placed 

 amongfl: Myrtles, Geraniums, and 

 other hardy Exotic Plants, till Oclo- 

 her, when they fhould be removed 

 into the Grcen-houic, where they 

 fhould be placed to have as much 

 free Air as pomble in mild Weather; 

 for otherwife they will become very 

 weak and unfightly.
