W E haue but one fort of true Iafmine ordinarily in our Gardens through- 
out the whole Land ; but there is another greater fort, which is farre 
more tender, brought out of Spaine, and will hardly endure any long 
time with vs, vnleffe it be very carefully preterued. Wee hauea third kindc called a 
yellow Iafmine, but differeth much from their tribe in many notable points : but be- 
caufe the flowers haue fome likeneffe with the flavors of the true Iafmine, it hath been 
vfually called a Iafmine ■ and therefore I am content for this Garden to conioyne 
them in one Chapter. ‘ 1 
i.Uf minum Mum. The white Iafmine; 
The white Iafmine hath many twiggy flexible greene branches, comming forth of 
the fundry bigger boughes or ftcms,that rife from the roote, which are couercd with 
a gray ifli darke coloured barke, hauing a white pith within it like the Elder , but not fo 
much : the winged lcaues (land al waies two together at the ioy nts, being made of ma- 
nic fmall and pointed leaucs, fet on each fide of a middle ribbe, fix mod vfually ore 
both fides , with one at the end , which is larger, more pointed then any of the red 
andofa darke greene colour : atthetoppesoftheyoungbranchesilanddiuers flow- 
ers together, as it wcrcinanvmbellorruft, each whereof ftandeth on a long <-reene 
ftalke, comming out of a fmall huske, being fmall, long, and hollow bclowc, ope- 
ning into fiue white fmall, pointed leaues, ofa very ftrong fweete fmell, which fall 
away without bearing any fruit at all , that euer I could learne in our Country • but in 
the hot Countries where it is naturali, it is laid to beare flatfruit, likeLupines : the 
rootes fpread farre and deepe, and are long and hard to gro we , vntill they haue taken 
ftrong hold in the ground.

white with blufh edges when they are open , exceeding fweete of fmell , more ftrong 
then the former. 4 * &
