Plants ; and when they come into a 

 cool Latitude, they muft be care- 

 fully protected from the Cold ; at 

 which time they will not require fo 

 frequently to be watered : for in a 

 moderate Degree of Heat, if they 

 have gentleWaterings twice a Week, 

 it will be fufficient. 



When the Plants arrive in Eng- 

 land, they mould be carefully taken 

 out of the Boxes, and each trans- 

 planted into a feparate Pot filled 

 with light rich Earth, and plunged 

 into a moderate Hot- bed of Tan- 

 ners Bark ; being careful to cover 

 the Glaftes in the Heat of the Day, 

 to fcreen the Plants from the Sun : 

 they muft alfo be frequently water- 

 ed ; but it muft be done with Cau- 

 tion, not to rot their Roots. In this 

 Hot-bed the Plants may remain till 

 Michaelmas, when they muft be re- 

 moved into theBark-ftovc,and plung- 

 ed into the Tan, in.the warmeft Part 

 of the Stove. During the Winter- 

 feafon the Plants muft be frequently 

 refrefhed with Water; but it muit be 

 given to them in fmall Quantities : 

 yet, in Summer, they will require a 

 more plentiful Share. Thefe Plants 

 are too tender to live in the open Air 

 in this Country, even in the hotteft 

 Seafon of the Year ; therefore muft 

 conftantly remain in the Bark ftove ; 

 obferving, in very warm Weather, to 

 let in a large Share of freih Air to 

 them, and in Winter to keep them 

 very warm. As the Plants increafe 

 in Bulk, they mould be Ihifted into 

 larger Pots ; in doing of which, there 

 muft be particular Care taken not to 

 tear or bruife their Roots, which 

 often kills the Plants; nor muft they 

 be placed in Pots too large; becaufe 

 that is a flow, but fure Death to 

 them. The Leaves of thefe Plants 

 muit be frequently warned, to clear 

 them from Filth ; which they are fub- 

 ject to contract by remaining con- 



c A 



flantly in the Houfe ; and this be^ 

 comes an Harbour for fmall Infects, 

 which will infeft the Plants, and de- 

 ftroy them, if they are not timely 

 warned off. If thefe Rules are duly 

 obferved, the Plants will thrive very 

 well, and may produce Flowers in 

 this Climate : but it will be very dif- 

 ficult to obtain Fruit from them ; for, 

 being of a very tender Nature, they 

 are fubjeel to many Accidents in a 

 cold Country. 

 CACHRYS.
