The new art of gardening, with the Gardener's almanack. 
London, Printed for H. Nelme, I697. I64 p. (Arn. Arb.; 
Dept. Agr.; Harvard; Mass. Hort. See.; Brit. Mus.) 
According to J.S.B., the "New art of garden¬ 
ing" appears to be an abridgement, tho entirely 
rewritten, of the "English gardener", with addi¬ 
tion of a section, "Of greens, and an almanack. 
Since the "Compleat English gardner" of I704 in¬ 
cludes "Monthly observations throughout the year 
to order the orchard, kitchen, and flower-gard- 
ning", it seems possible the "New art of garden¬ 
ing" may have been a further combination of the 
work of Meager with that of Gilbert, whose alma¬ 
nack was originally published with his "Florists 
vade-mecum" in 1632. (MFW)
