The firft Species grows wild in 

 the North of England, and in Scot- 

 land ; from whence the Plants may 

 be procured. The bell Seafon for 

 tranfplanting of them is in Autumn, 

 juft as the Leaves decay, when the 

 Roots fhould be carefully rrken up 

 with a large Ball of Ei.th to them, 

 and muft be planted in a llrong 

 loamy Soil, and in a fhady Situation ; 

 where, if they are fufr'ered to remain 

 undifturbed, they will produce their 

 beautiful Flowers in May, and may 

 be preferred feveral Years ; but if 

 they are placed in a warm rich Soil, 

 they will not thrive, and rarely pro- 

 duce any Flowers. 



The lecond Sort is not a Native 

 of England, but is - equally hardy 

 with ours ; fo that, if P.oots can be 

 procured irom abroad, they mull: be 

 treated in the fame manner as hath 

 been directed for that. 



The third Sort is found in 

 Aiw-Fngland, V'uginia, and North- 

 Carolina, in moiit Woods, from 

 whence thefe Roots may be pro- 

 cured. Thefe muft have a moift 

 fhady Situation, and in Winter 

 fhould be fcreened from fevere Frofts, 

 otherwife they cannot be preferved 

 in this Country : for akho' they 

 are found wild in Countries where 

 • they have much colder Winters ; 

 yet growing in the Woods, they are 

 covered with Leaves, and are pro- 

 tected by the Trees; fp chat the 

 Froft doth not penetrate very deep 

 into the Earth. 



All thefe Plants fhould be placed 

 in a fliady Situation, and in dry Wea- 

 ther muft be frequently watered, 

 ,©therwife they will cot thrive ; for 



they generally grow on moift fpringy 

 Soils, and where they are fhaded 

 with Trees ; fo that where there is 

 not particular Care to keep them 

 moift during their'Seafon of Growth, 

 they feldom thrive in Gardens.
