and Miscellaneous Particulars. 
without injuring the shoot, use a sharp penknife or a pair of small scissors, for the least bruise or wound 
spoils the cutting. This done, dibble the cuttings into pots filled with moistened white sand from pits, or with 
any small sand from pits or rivers, or, in default of that, with powdered sandstone. When they are all planted. 
Water the whole to fix them still better, and when the moisture has subsided, cover them with a small crystal 
or greenish crystal bell-gla.9s fitted within the rim of the pot, and place them in the shade on a spent hot-bed, 
keeping them quite close till rooted. The free-striking sorts will have roots in two months, and the others at 
different periods from three to twelve months, most of them will be ready for transplanting into pots of the 
smallest size in the following March. Their rooting is easily known by their beginning to shoot, and then the 
bell should be taken off an hour or two daily. 
Many Ericas ripen their seeds in this country, and of other sorts seeds are regularly obtained by the nursery- 
men from the collectors at the Cape of Good Hope. Imported seeds generally arrive in the winter, and 
should be sown early in the spring following, in pots filled with equal parts of peat and sand well incorporated ; 
the seeds should be thinly covered with earth gently pressed down, and bell-glasses placed over them as over 
the cuttings. The soil must be kept moderately moist by gentle waterings, and in about six or seven weeks
