they continue in Flower ; but they 

 xnuft not have it in too great Quan- 

 tities ; for as the Roots are thick and 

 flefliy,muchMoifture will caufe them 

 to rot: thefePlants do not require any 

 artificial Heat in Winter ; fo may 

 be preferved in a good Green houfe; 

 or if they are placed in a dry airy 

 Glafs-cafe with Ficoides, and other 

 hardy fucculent Plants of the fame 

 Country, they will thrive and flower 

 extremely well : and with this Ma- 

 nagement I have had the Seed-vef- 

 iels formed, which have grown to a 

 confiderable Size ; but the long cold 

 Nights, which then came on, caufed 

 the Air to be very damp, which 

 occafioned a Mouldinefs, that de- 

 ftroyed the Seeds : but I believe by 

 removing the Plants into a moderate 

 Stove, as foon as the Flowers are 

 over, this might be prevented, and 

 good Seeds may be obtained.
