Of TREES, SHRUBS, PLANTS, FLOWERS, and FRUITS. 
planted in pots finely • train the plants with a Angle 
fiem below, and a iranchy head above; and when two, 
to three or four fleet nigh, are proper for the fhrub- 
bery. 
Layers of the lower young (hoots, in autumn or 
fpring, wili root in one year, for planting off in thefe. 
feafons; and by this method of propagation, any of 
the varieties are continued permanent in their reflpec- 
tive differences. 
Likewife, by grafting or budding upon feedlirg- 
ftocks of any of the forts, the different varieties, are 
propagated, and continued the fame; and fomedmes, 
for curiofity, different varieties are budded or grafted 
on branches of the fame (lock or item; as the two 
forts of ftriped-leaved kinds, and the purple and white- 
flowered, &c. 
Hippophae, SEA-BUCKTHORN. 
Clafs and Order. 
Dioecia Tetrandria, 
7 w« Habitations , Four Males j 
Or Male and Female Flowers, difindl on two feparale 
Plants, and the Male Flowers having four Stamina. 
THIS Genus comprifes two large, hardy, decidu¬ 
ous (hrubs, employed in (hrubberies, and any orna¬ 
mental plantations, for variety; are garnifhed infummer 
with fmall, narrow, fpear-lhaped, and broader, ovate 
leaves; and fmall clufters of male and female flowers, 
feparate on two diftindt plants; have no petals, the 
male flower a one-leaved cup, two-parted, and. contain 
four (hort (lamina, with oblong, angular, anthera ; fe¬ 
male has a one-leaved calyx, oblong, tubulous, bifid 
at top, contains a roundifh germen, fupporting a (hort 
flyle, crowned by an oblong, thick iiigma, and the 
germen becomes a globular, unilocular berry, with 
one our.difh feed ; by which the (hrubs may be raifed, 
but are more commonly propagated by fuckers ar.d 
layers. 
The Species of HIPPOPHAE are, 
I. Hippophae Rhamnoides—(Rhamnoides) or Baf- 
tard Rhamnus, or Sea-Buckthorn. 
A large, deciduous (hrub, branching irregularly, 
eight or ten feet high, with a brown, (ilvery bark— 
the leaves (narrows) fpcar-lhape, hairy underneath; 
and fmall clufters of male and female flowers, fuc- 
cecdcd, in the latter, by ripe berries in autumn.— 
Native of England, and other parts of Europe, near 
the fea. (Sandy, or any foil.) 
2 . Hippophae ec.nadenfs, Canada Sea-Buckthorn. 
A large, deciduous (hrub, growing eight or ten 
feet high—the leaves ( middling ) ovate, hoary, (ilvery 
on the under (ide.—Native of Canada. (Sandy, or 
any common foil.) 
Thefe two deciduous (hrubs may be admitted in large 
(hrubberies, and other plantations in pleafure grounds, 
to encreafe the variety; they may be procured at the 
nurferies, for planting, particularly the Rhamnoides, or 
Common Sea-Buckthorn; and both the forts may be. 
planted in any fituation, in autumn 01 fpring : may be 
propagated plentifully by bottom-fuckers, ariling from 
the roots, and tranfplanted in a nurfery for one or two 
years, or more, till proper for the (hrubbery, &c. 07 
may likewife be raifed by layers; alfo by feed fowed 
in autumn or fpring; and when, by either methods of 
propagation, the plants are three, to four or five feet 
high, they are of proper fize for any intended plan¬ 
tations. 
Hydrangea— (HYDRANGEA.) 
Clafs and Order. 
Decandria Digynia, 
Ten Males, Two Females ; 
Or Plants with Hermaphrodite Flowers, hawing ten 
Stamina, or Maks, and two Pifillums, or Females . 
The Hydrangea comprifes but one fipecies; a low, 
deciduous under-fhrub, admitted in (hrubbery col¬ 
lections for variety; having heart-fliape leaves, and 
terminal bundles of white flowers in cymofe umbels; 
the calyx of the flowers one-leaved, five-dented; co¬ 
rolla, five ro n ndifh petals, ten (lamina, alternately 
longer, crowned by roundifh anthera; a roundifh ger¬ 
men under the flower, fupporting two (hort (tyles, 
(landing diftant, terminated by obtufe ftigmas; and 
the germen becomes a round: (h capfule, crowned by 
the permanent ftigmas, and filled with fmall angular 
feeds; feldom ufed for flowing, as this plant propa¬ 
gates plentifully by off-fet fuckers, and parting the 
roots. 
One Species, viz. 
Hydrangea arborefeens, Arborefcent, or Shrubby 
Hydvangea. 
A fmall, under-fhrubby plant, riling with foft lig¬ 
neous Hems, two or three to four feet high—the leaves 
(large, light-green) oblong-heart-lhape, placed oppo- 
fite; and cymofe bunches of white (lowers at the top 
of the Hems; July ar.d Auguft.—Native of Virginia. 
(dny common foil.)
