The Sort firft-mentioned is com- 

 mon in feveral curious Gardens near 

 London, and is planted againft Walls 

 expofed to the South Sun, where it 

 thrives, and produces large Quan- 

 tities of Flowers annually ; but it 

 requires a great deal of room ; for 

 it i? a large Shooter ; and the Flowers 

 being always produced at the ex- 

 treme Parts of the fame Year's 

 Shoots, if thefe are flopped, the 

 Flowers are taken off ; but in Spring 

 the young Branches may be fhort- 

 ened to three or four Ryes, as in 

 Vine?, and the fmall weak Shoots 

 taken out, leaving the large ones 

 twenty Inches or two Feet afunder : 

 thefe Branches ftrike Roots into the 

 Walls, by which they are fecured, 

 and require very little Aliiftance in 

 nailing shem up.

The fecond Sort is of humble 

 Growth, and is only propagated by 

 laying down the Branches in Sum- 

 mer, when they are free of Growth, 

 which in about fix or eight Months 

 will take Root, when they may be 

 tranfplanted into Pots, and in Winter 

 will require to be lheltcred with 

 Myrtles, cjfr. where they may have 

 a large Share of Air. In Summer 

 they mult be placed abroad, and 

 treated as other hardy American 

 Plants. This Plant doth not pro- 

 duce large Bunches of Flowers as 

 the firfl, nor are they fo deep-co- 

 loured. 



There are two other Varieties of 

 the fir ft Sort, one of which has 

 deeper -colour'd Flowers, and the 

 other has much fmaller Leaves, than 

 the firfl ; but they are both climb- 

 ing Plants, and to be treated in the 

 fame manner as was dire&ed for the 

 firfl. Thefe Plants will rife to the 

 Height of forty or fifty Feet, if 

 they are permitted ; fo are very 

 proper to cover any high Wall or 

 Building, to which they will faftert 

 themfelves by linking Roots into the 

 Joints of the Wall. 



The third Sort is fcarce in Eng- 

 land at prefent : this is a Tree of a 

 large Growth in the warm Parts of 

 America ; but being tenderer than 

 the other Sorts, requires to be kept 

 in a Stove in England. 



The Seeds of this Sort may be 

 procured from Jamaica, where thefe 

 Trees grow in great Plenty ; but 

 they Ihould be brought over in their 

 Pods, which will prelerve them ; 

 for thofe which are taken out are 

 generally fo much dried by the Heat, 

 as to deftroy them ; lo that fcarce 

 any of them will grow. 



The Seeds of the fourth Sort were 

 brought from Carolina by Mr. Catejby, 

 and have been raifed in many of
