INTRODUCTION. 
As an apology for the present undertakings the 
Author has only to observe^ that the very great 
encouragement he has received in his folio edition of 
the Ericas, joined with the repeated application of 
many of its subscribers^ for a small^ concise^ and 
pleasant reference to that beautiful and extensive 
tribes induced him to offer to the amateurs of 
plants in generals the present Monograph ; in which 
will be given all the known speciess and likewise all 
those successively that may hereafter be introduced \ 
with Latin and English descriptionss dissectionss &c, 
on the same plan as the folio work. 
The Author therefore hopes it will be regarded as 
an agreeable green-house companions calculated to 
preserve the folio edition for the use of the librarys 
to which on account of its size it is best adapted. 
When one volume is completeds every necessary 
requisite for binding will be given.
