Propagation and Culture. Moft of thefe plants are re¬ 
puted to be weeds, and very few of them are cultivated, 
except in botanic gardens. If their feeds are permitted 
to fcatter, they will in general propagate themfelves, 
and, being moftly perennial, they may alfo be increafed 
bv parting the roots. They may all be propagated by 
feeds, which (hould be fown on an eaft-afpeCted border 
in March; and when the plants come up, they mull be 
kept clean from weeds, till they are ltrong enough to 
remove, which will be by the beginning of June; then 
they ftiould be tranfplanted to a lhady border of un¬ 
dunged ground, at fix inches diftance, obferving to wa¬ 
ter them if the weather Ihould prove dry, till they have 
taken new root; after which, if they are kept clean from 
weeds, they will require no other culture: in the autumn 
they Ihould be tranlplanted where thqy are defigned to 
xo G remain;
