The firft of thefe Species is pro- 

 pagated in Gardens-- for medicinal 

 Ufes : this is done by fowing the 

 Seeds in July, foon after they are 

 ripe, in a moid fnady Spot of 

 Ground; and when the Plants are 

 come up, they mould be thinned, 

 fo as to "be left at about four Inches 

 Di dance each Way. The Plants 

 that are taken out may be trans- 

 planted into other fnady Borders, if 

 you have Occaiion for them; other- 

 wife they may be hoed out, as is 

 praclifed for Onions, Carrots, iffc. ; 

 and at the fame time all the Weeds 

 may be hoed down, fo as to clear 

 the Plants intirely from them, that 

 they may have room to grow ftrc'tfg. 

 In the Spring thefe. Plants will be 

 lit for Ufe ; and thofe' that are fuf- 

 fered to remain will run up to Seed 

 in May, and perfeft their Seeds in 

 July. 



If this Plant is fown in tV.e 

 Spring, the Seeds feldom grow well 



therefore the beft time is foon after 

 they are ripe: the Plants rarely live 

 after producing Seeds ; fo that it 

 fhould be fown every Year, to have 



it for Ufe. ' 



The Sea Scurvy-grafs is alfo ufed 

 in Medicine ; but this grows in the 

 fait Marfhes in Kent and Ef\x, where 

 the fait Water overflows it almod 

 every Tide ; and can rarely be made 

 to grow in a Garden, or at lead to 

 lad longer there than one Year: but , 

 it being eafily gathered in the Places 

 before - mention'd, the Markets are 

 fuppVd from thence by the Herb- 

 women, who make it their Bufmefs 

 to gather this Herb. 



The little Wtljh Scurvy-grafs is 

 a biennial Plant, and may be pre- 

 ferved in a Garden, if planted in a 

 ftrong~Soil, and a fhady Situation. 

 This is preferved in curious Gardens 

 of Plants ; but is not of any Ufe in 

 Medicine; though it is by far the 

 warmed and mod pungent of ail the 

 Sorts, This Plant grows plentifully 

 in Mufco-vy, as alio in Davis's 

 S freights. 



The fifth Sort is fometimes found 

 wild in England: this Sort is a low 

 annual Plant, which if permitted to 

 (batter its Seeds, the Plants will 

 come up, and require no other Care 

 but to clear them from Weeds. 



The feventh Sort is a biennial 

 Plant, which ufually grows about 

 a Foot and an half high. This may 

 be propagated by Seecs, as the com- 

 mon Sort; and, if fown in Autumn, 

 will more certainly fucceed than in 

 the Spring, 



The Horfe radifh is propagated 

 by Cuttings or Puds from the Sides 

 of the old Roots. The bed Seafon 

 for this Work is in Ocl->kcr or Fe- 

 Bruarj ; the former for dry Lands, 

 and riie latter for moid. The man- 

 ner of doing it is as follows: Pro-
