tn faving the Seeds of thefe Kinds, 

 'there Ihould be particular Care 

 taken to make choice of the moll 

 double Flowers, and thofe winch are 

 of the brighteft Colours. 



The common Mangold is fome- 

 times uied in Medicine ; but the 

 Flowers are frequently ufed in the 

 Kitchen, for both which Purpofes 

 the Angle Flowers are to be pre- 

 ferr'd, having a much better Scent, 

 and add a ilronger Flavour to the 

 Soups. 



Thefe Kinds are very fubjecl to 

 vary, efpecially if the Seeds are 

 not very carefully faved ; and if 

 the Seeds are often changed from 

 one Garden to another, at fome 

 Diilance, it will be a means to pre- 

 serve the Varieties better.

 The Chambers are ; 



The Empalement of ihe Flower 

 is divided into five Jbarp Segments l 

 the Flower u tubulous, confifting of 

 tine Leaf, which opens at the Top, 

 and is divided into five Farts : the 

 Fointal arifes fro?n the Bottom of the 

 Tube-j having a double Gormen, and 

 is attended by five Stamina, which 

 are fmall ': the Germen afterward 

 becomes a dvuble Pod, inclofeng many 

 fmall Seeds, which lie over each 

 other like Scales. 



The Species are ;

bte learned Friend Dr. .Willi amttoufi 

 toun brought the Seeds into England. 

 This is a low Shrub, feldom rifing 

 above four or five Feet high, and 

 produces its Flowers at the Ends of 

 the Branches, in fmall Umbels s the 

 Leaves and Branches of this Plants 

 when broken, emit a milky Juice, 

 which is acrid, and near of Kin to 

 the DogVbane. 



The fecond Sort grows plentifully 

 in the Ifland of Jamaica ; as alfo 

 in fome of the French iflands. This 

 grows taller than the fir ft Sort ; but 

 the Stem is not fo woody. 



Thefe Plants are propagated by 

 Seeds, which mull be procured from 

 the Places of their Growth ; for they 

 do not perfect their Seeds in Eng- 

 land. They may alfo be propagated 

 by Cuttings planted in an Hot-bed 

 curing the Summer-months : they 

 mult have a Eark-ftove ; for they 

 are very tender Plants ; but in warm 

 Weather muft have Plenty of Air.
