Hip, and fow the feeds, or you may keep the feeds in fbme 
indifferent tempered mould,until February or Marchjom you 
muft not keep your mould over dry: the way to fee the 
proof of your lowing more fpeedily is, that fofoon as you 
have railed fbme plants although they be but little bigger 
than a good Crows-quill, you may take fome buds off about 
the end of July ^or in Augufl or Scptemberfor fb late,and fome- 
times a month later you may inoculate Roles, you may 
bud them on the White or Daimsk-rofe frock, or on other 
’forts of Rofes double or Angle,by which means you may as 
I laid, fee what variety your lowing hath produced in a far 
fhorter time than the natural Plants will. 
Alfo Rofes are, as moft know, increafed by fuckers that 
fpring from the roots, the which fbme forts of Rofes bring

will not cut your Tree down low,then you may only top his

today, or at lead to bud j but in regard fome forts of Rofes 
are not very apt to take root,being laid in an ordinary way(as 
the Musk Rcfe for one,although it will fometimes grow offlips 
or cuttings) therefore for foch it will be your bed way to prick 
or hack that part you are to lay with your knife, or which is
