The firft of thefe Sorts is found in 

 clivers Places in Yorkfhire, Cumber- 

 land, Northumberland, and other 

 Northern Counties of England ; but 

 is rarely met with in the Southern 

 Parts, unlefs where it is preferved in 

 Gardens : this Plant may be propa- 

 gated by fowing the Seeds, or part- 

 ing the Roots : it muft have a fhady 

 moift Situation, where it will thrive 

 very well. 



The fecond and third Sorts are 

 only preferved in curious Gardens of 

 Plants, and are rarely met with in 

 the Englijh Gardens ; they are very 

 hsrdy, and will endure our Cold 

 very well, if planted in the open 

 Ground. 



Thefe are propagated in the fame 

 manner as the former. 



CHRYSANTHEMOIDES OS- 

 TEOSPERMON. Vide Ofteofper- 

 mum. 



CHRYSANTHEMUM, Corn- 

 marigold. 



The Characters are ; 



It hath an annual Root : the Cup 

 of the Flower is hemifpherical and 

 fcaly : the Flowers are radiated ; the 

 Rays being, for the moji part, of a 

 yellow Co/our ; and the Seeds are fur- 

 rowed. 



The Species are ; 



1. Chrysanthemum flore par- 

 tbn candido, partim luteo. C. B. 

 White Corn-marigold, or Chryfan- 

 themum. 



2. Chrysanthemum folio ma- 

 trie aria, fore alho plena. H. C. The 

 double white Chryfanthemum, or 

 Corn-marigold. 



3. Chrysanthemum Crcticwn

 fanthemum, or Corn-marigold. 



4. Chrysanthemum folio ma-

 or Corn- marigold,

5. Chrysanthemum Creticum} 

 petalis forum fjlulofs. Tourn. The 

 quill - leav'd Chryfanthemum, or 

 Corn-marigold. 



The firft and fecond Sorts are Va- 

 rieties, which arife from the fame 

 Seeds, as alfo the third and fourth 

 Sorts : therefore thefe four may be 

 deemed as two Sorts; but fome mo- 

 dern Botanifts reduce them to one; 

 tho\ from repeated Trials, I never 

 have found, that the Seeds of the 

 white Sort have produced yellow 

 Flowers, nor the yellow Sort pro- 

 duced the White. 



The fifth Sort is accidental, and 

 often has been produced by the white 

 and yellow Sorts ; and only differs 

 from them in having their Petals 

 tubulous or hollow, like a Quill ; 

 the fame frequently happens in the 

 'African Marigold j but the Seeds of 

 all thefe degenerate back to the plain- 

 leav'd Sort. 



Thefe Plants are all propagated 

 by fowing their Seeds in the Spring 

 upon a gentle Hot-bed, in order to 

 have them early ; otherwife they 

 will come up as well, if fown in the 

 open Ground : when the Plants are 

 come up, they mould be tranfplant- 

 ed into Nurfery-beds, or about ten 

 Inches afunder every Way, where 

 they may remain until they mew 

 their Flowers ; at which time you 

 may tranfplant all thofe which have 

 double Flowers, either into Pots or 

 Borders, to adorn the Pleafure-gar- 

 den or Court-yard. The fingle ones 

 may be pull'd up firft, and call away 

 as good for nothing ; which will 

 make room for the better taking up 

 the double ones, with a large Ball of 

 Ear tii to their Roots, otherwife they 

 will not bear removing when fo far 

 advanc'd. If thefe Plants are fet in 

 the full Ground, they will grow very 

 large ; therefore they mould be 

 planted
