These three individual titles, corresponding to
parts 1, 2, and 3 of Bonnefons, "Jardinier françois"
were translated by Georg Graeflinger and included in
his German version of Van Aengelen's "Verstandige
hovenier", probably originally published in 1665.
In the earliest eds. examined they have individual
paging, and possibly in all issues from 1665-1695,
but in 1734, 1751, and probably other l8th century
eds., Bonnefons' work is paged consecutively with
the rest of the volume.  Brit. Mus has 1665.

There is no reason to suppose this translation
was ever revised. Dept. Agr. printed card for one
of the early eds. of Van Aengelen (Agr 28-1334) indicates 
that it was made from the first ed. of Bonnefons, 
1651, but there is no ground for this assertion; 
it is not shown in the work itself, and there
were some 10 or 12 French eds. of Bonnefons by the
time Graeflinger made his translation.

Haller, Bib. Bot. 1:520 , says it was published
Hamburg, 1664, but inasmuch as the half-titles for
these three sections in later eds. of Van Aengelen
are plainly dated 1665, it seems likely that Haller
may have taken the date 1664 from a preface or the
like, which would show when Graeflinger finished
his translation rather than the exact date of publication.
