ken Root ; after which they will re- 

 quire no farther Care, but to keep 

 them clear from Weeds in Summer, 

 and to trim them accoi ding to the 

 Purpofe forwhich they are defign'd. 



In tnefeBeds they may remain two 

 or three Years, according as ihey 

 have grown, when they mould be 

 again remov'd into aNurfery; place- 

 ing them in Rows at three Feet Di- 

 ftance, and thePlants eighteen Inch- 

 es a'under in the Rows ; obferving 

 to do it in the Autumn, as was be- 

 fore directed, and continue to trim 

 them in the Summer feafon, accord- 

 ing to the Defign for which they 

 were intended ; and after they have 

 continued three or four Years in this 

 Nurfery, they may be tranfplanted 

 where they are to remain, always 

 obferving to remove them in the Au- 

 tumn where the Ground is very dry ; 

 but on cold moift Land it is better 

 in the Spring. 



Thefe Trees are very flow in 

 growing ; but yet there are many 

 very large Trees upon fome barren 

 cold Soiis, in divers Parts of England: 

 the Timber of thefe Trees is greatly 

 efteem'd for many Ufes.

The firit Sort is a Native of Italy, 

 Spain, ai d the Southern Parts of 

 France ; from whence the Seeds 

 have been procur'a by fome Perfons 

 who are curious in Botany, who pre- 

 ferve it in their Gardens for the fake 

 of Variety. It is a low Plant, whofe 

 Branches trail on the Ground : the 

 Leaves are imall and roundifh, of a 

 glaucous Colour, and of a pretty - 

 thick Confidence. The Flowers are 

 fmall, and of a whitiuVgreen Colour; 

 fo that the whole Plant makes but 

 an ordinary Appearance. 



This Sort may be propagated by 

 Seeds, which fhould be fown early 

 in the" Spring, on a Bed of frefh 

 light Earth, in an open Situation ; 

 and when the Plants are come up, 

 they lhould be thinned, fo as to leave 

 them fix or eight Inches afunder ; 

 and they muft be constantly kept 

 clear from Weeds : for if thefe' are 

 permitted to grow, they will foon 

 overbear the Plants, and deftroy 

 them. 



In June they will begin to 

 flower, and their Seeds will ripen in 

 Auguft ; when they muft be can fuU 

 lywatched to gather the Seeds, other- 

 wife they will foon be fcatter'd 

 abroad ; and if the Ground is not 

 difturb'd, the Plants wil! come up in 

 plenty, and require no other Care, 

 than to keep them clear from 

 Weeds.
