I raifed every Day, to admit frefti Air 

 I to the Plants ; othervvife they will 

 I draw up weak, and twift themfelves 

 I together, fo as to render it difficult 

 f to feparate them. When the Plants 

 tare about three Inches high, they 

 I mould be carefully taken up, and 

 I each planted in a fmall Pot filled with 

 I frefti light Earth, and then plunged 

 [into a moderate Hot-bed of Tan- 

 Iners Bark, obferving to made the 



* Glafles every Day with Mats, until 

 \ the Plants have taken .*ew Root; 

 j after which time they mould have a 

 I large Share of frefti Air; and in 

 (warm Weather they muft be fre- 

 | quently watered. When the Plants 

 I have filled the Pots with their Roots, 



they mould be fha^en out, and plant- 

 ed into larger Pots filled with frelh 

 . Earth, and ihen placed in the Stove, 

 j where they may have room to climb, 

 and-their Shoots either twilled on an 

 I Efpalier made in the back Part of 

 I the Stove for thefe and other ram- 

 bling Plant:, or elfe fupportcd with 

 - long Stakes ; otherwife they will 

 t ramble over whatever Plants ftand 

 ' near them. Some of thefe Sorts will 

 I produce Flowers the firft Seaion, but 

 : others will not flower until the fe- 

 i cond or third Year ; nor will they 

 1 flower kindiy, unlefs tney have a 



• large Share of frefti At, efpecially 

 ! in warm Weather. Thefe Plants 



will continue feveral Years, provi- 

 ded they are managed rightly ; and 

 will produce Flowers and Seeds 

 every Year, and make a fine Ap- 

 pearance in the S.ove, when they are 

 in Flower. 



The fifth, fixth, feventh, eighrh, 

 and ninth Sorts are annual, and are 

 propagated i.iGardens for the Beauty 

 of their Flowers :■ thefe are com 

 monly fov/n on anHot bed ir.Marcb; 

 and afterwards transplanted into Bor- 

 ders in the open Air, where being 

 funpoited by tall Stakes, they will 



CO 



twin 1 round them, and arife to a great 

 Height, producing great Quantities 

 of fine large bel'-ftiaped Flowers,and 

 will comin .e flowering until the 

 Froit prevent them. 



Thefe may all be raifed in the 

 open Ground, except the ninth, 

 which, if it is not brought forward 

 in tht Spring by an Hut-bed, lel.'om 

 produces ripe Seeds : the rert are 

 very hardy, and may be lown to 

 cover Seats, Arbours, Palifadoes,ciff. 

 which they wiil do in a fhort time, 

 and continue very handfome until 

 the Frolt, deflroys them : th~ feveral 

 Varieties, when internvxed, make a 

 beautiful xAppearance ; but the ninth 

 Sort is by far the moll beautiful of 

 them all, the Flowers of this being 

 of the finch: azure blue Colour. 



The tenth Sort is an abiding Plant, 

 and require a Green-hou:^ in Win- 

 ter : thio will grow to a conllderable 

 Height, ana mull: be fuppo-tM by 

 ftron^ c 'a'-es : it flower almoll every 

 Yeai with us ; but feldom produces 

 good Seeo\ in England This may 

 be propagate . by laying down the 

 tender Branches m the Spring, which 

 by \utumn will have fuflicient Roots 

 to be taker orT. Thef. mull: be plant- 

 ed in Pots filled with frefli light 

 Earth, ar.d fheltered from Frofts in 

 Winter ; but muit have as much free 

 Air a* poiiible in mdd Weather, and 

 require frequent Waterings : it may 

 a!fo be propagated by Cutting* in 

 any of the Summer-months. 



The eleventh bort is very com- 

 mon in the hotter Pam of America, 

 where it is known by the Name of 

 Spanijb Arbour- vine : it is by the In- 

 a irants planted to cover Arbours 

 and Se its, for which Purpofe it is 

 very proper : tor in thofe Countries 

 one of thefe P'ants will grow to the 

 Length of fixty or an hundred Feet, 

 and produce greatQuamities of vSide- 

 branches; by which meam, in a very
