autumn, in pots proportionate to the 
fize of the bulbs, fo that the top of the 
root be one inch below the furface of 
the earth, which fhould be light and 
rich. They are all tender, and fucceed 
beft in a hot-houfe or green-houfe : it 
is, however, abfolutely neceffary to pre- 
ferve them from every degree of froft; 
they require but little water in winter, 
and fhould have the advantage of as 
much light and air as can be admitted 
with fafety. 
It would exceed the intended limits 
of this treatife to enter upon the culture, 
&c. of the almoft innumerable fpecies 
and varieties of other bulbous, herba¬ 
ceous, annual, and perennial flowers, 
r 
which are of little import to the flower 
fancier ; and fo well known, in general, 
as to render an addition of the kind, 
to this work, by no means neceffary.
