There are fome other Varieties of 

 this Plant, which are preferved in 

 curious Botanic Gardens : but thofe 

 here mentioned are the bell worth 

 cultivating, for their Beauty. 



The firit of thefe Plants is very 

 common in moll old Gardens in Eng- 

 and, and is generally known by the 

 Name of Honefty, or White Sattin : 

 jt requires very little Culture, and 

 mould be fown foon after the Seeds 

 are ripe in Autumn, upon a Bed or 

 Border of common Earth, in almoft 

 any Situation (provided it be not un- 

 der the Dripping of Trees), in which 

 Place they mould be fufFered to re- 

 main ; for they feldom thrive well, 

 if tranfplanted ; and in May follow- 

 ing they will produce Flowers, and 

 the Seeds will ripen in Augufi. The 

 £eed-ve!Te!s of this Plant, when they 

 fire full ripe, become very tranfpa- 



l u 



rent, and of the Appearance of white 

 Sattin, at which time the Branches 

 are cut off, and dry'd ; after which, 

 they are preferved to place in the 

 Chimneys of Halls, and large 

 Rooms, where they appear very 

 agreeable. 



The other Sorts may be all propa- 

 gated in the fame manner as the for- 

 mer, with this Difference; 

 That as they are fomewhat tenderer, 

 fo they mould have a warmer Situa- 

 tion, otherwife they are fubject to 

 be destroyed in very cold Winters : 

 they fnould alfo have a dry Soil, 

 which Ihould be freih, but not dung- 

 ed ; for if the Soil be too rank, they 

 often canker and decay, especially 

 in wet Seafons. 



Thefe Plants are all of them pretty 

 Varieties in large Gardens, where 

 there is room ; but they are feldom 

 cultivated in fmall Places, efpecially 

 the two firft Sorts, which grow 

 pretty large, and take up too much 

 room. Their Flowers are not very 

 beautiful : but for the Oddnefs of 

 their Seed- vefTels, as alfo the different 

 Appearances of the Plants, they may 

 be admitted. 



The third, fifth, and fixth Sorts 

 are perennial Plants, which may be 

 propagated by planting Cuttings of 

 any of them in the Summer months, 

 in a fhady Border of frem light Earth, 

 obferving to water them until they 

 have taken Root ; after which, they 

 may be removed into the Places 

 where they are to remain, and mud 

 be treated as thofe Plants which were 

 raifed from Seeds.
