Towards the latter end of the month begin to pot off singly, 
such young tender plants as were liaised from seed this year, and 
that stand too close together where growing. These should be 
"immediate placed in the shade lor about three weeks till newly 
rooted, after which place them in a warm exposure tili the ap- 
proach of frost, when they must be removed inlo the Green-house 
or placed under the protection of frames and glasses. Sec. 
THE PLEASURE, OR FLOWER-GARDEN. 
Carnations and Pinks. 
Your late carnation and pink layers, must now be taken off, as 
soon as they are well rooted, and be treated as directed in July and 
August; the earlier in the month that you can do this, the better 
will the plants be rooted before winter. 
Towards the end of the month you may transplant from the 
nursery-beds, the seedling pinks and carnations, into such beds and 
borders as you intend them to flower in; observing to take each 
plant up with a ball of earth, and to give it some water when newly 
planted. 
Jluriculas. 
The auricula plants still require due attention, but particularly 
those shifted last month; they must yet be kept in the shade and 
moderately watered, as often as the earth appears rather dry, to 
promote a free growth and a good supply of new roots before 
winter. 
If the shifting had been neglected last month it may yet be done, 
but ihe beginning of August is a more eligible period. 
Particular care must now be taken to keep the auricula seedlings, 
as well as the old plants, free from decayed leaves and weeds of 
of every kind, to keep the earth about them in a moderate state of 
moisture, that the plants may grow freely and obtain strength before 
winter. 
Sowing Seeds of Bulbous-rooted Flowers. 
This will be a very proper time to sow the seeds of Tulips, 
Hyacinths, and of every other kind of bulbous-rooted flowers, that 
have perfected seed in the preceding part of the season. These 
seeds should be sown separately, in boxes filled with good sound 
garden mould, mixed with a small portion of sand, or with Hyacinth
