ADVERTISEMENT.

The Author begs to observe, that the Volume he now
lays before the Public is the substance of observations and
remarks which were noted down during an experience of
more than twenty years in the best Gardens in various
parts of south and north Britain: these remarks were
originally intended merely for his own perusal as a book
of occasional reference for the assistance of his memory :
he has, however, at length been induced, by the advice
of several Gardeners, (whose well-known scientific skill
in their profession, give additional importance to their ap-
probation,)to publish the substance of his notes and observa-
tions in a condensed form he now endeavours to comply
with that request; but the PubHc alone must determine
how far his labours are worthy of patronage.

He ventures, however, to express his confidence that
this volume will be found, not only a useful guide and
directory to the practised Gardener, but a pleasing and
instructive companion to those Ladies and Gentlemen who
take pleasure in the embellishment of their Gardens and
Pleasure Grounds.

FOREST TREES.

Ash, Beech, Birch, Chesnut, Elm, Fir,
Lime, Maple, Oak, Plane, Poplar, Syc-
amore, Walnut, ought not to be planted
in a shrubbery, except such as are exten-
sive, and at a tolerable distance from the
dwelling-house; neither should any of
those trees be planted nearer than fifty
yards to the garden wall. Hornbeam, Y ew,
and Holly may be planted among the larger
shrubs, to screen a stable-yard or any other
offensive object. The common Laurel and
Holly thrive tolerably well under the drop
of taller trees ; and in winter make a plea-
sant contrast with the brown leaves of Beech
and Hornbeam. This answers for a screen-
ing shelter, and may be lopped and pruned
to any height, at pleasure.

The following is a list of such forest trees
as make the best appearance when planted
single, or in groups, in corners of fields,
or dispersed in parks and extensive pleasure

t rounds : — Ash, Beech, Chesnut, Elm,
lime, Maple, Oak, are, of all others, the

bast. Plane tree or Sycamore is adapted
for cold and bleak situations; and seldom
has what is termed a weather side, though
planted and grow ing in the most exposed
situations ; it is also an ornamental tree, but
indicates autumn too soon to be planted
near the d w elling-house. W alnut is a very
pleasant and useful tree, but requires good
soil and situation, in order to thrive well.

On boggy grounds, Athenian woolly-
leaved Abele Asp Poplars, and Alder;
though w ith little trouble any of the first
class of forest trees may be encouraged
to thrive on swampy places, by taking off
the sod or top about three feet deep, and
four feet square, where you wish to plant
a tree. Then about a cart load of stones,
such as are gathered from clover fields,
should be put in the bottom of the pit ; and
over the stones, one cart load of good
mould, from a head land or compost heap,
which has been laid up for that purj)ose.
Let the tree be planted therein, and the
sod or top which was taken off at first wall
be useful in forming a bank round the tree,
to keep the soil from falling or washhig
from its roots. Some flat stones laid upon
the top of the earth, round the stem, will
help to steady the plant; until it establish
new roots.

Red tough cky is unfavorable to the
<^rowth of trees ; and to obviate this ditheul-
ty, a shallow pit may be nuule, and a bank
formed round the margin : if the bottom of
the pit should prove wet, be careful to put
stones in before the mould ; and it is a pre-
caution always to be observed, not to plant
any tree whatsoever too deep, even on the
best land.

A single ancient Fir has a very romantic
and venerable appearance; and an old
spreading Yew, in a situation where nature
or accident has planted it, adds much to
the beauty of a landscape ; but will not
acknowledge any obligation to the fostering
care of the gardener.

Single trees add much to the grandeur
of farm lands: a very great improvement in
the general aspect of the country would
take place if farmers and owners of estates
would plant an oak, or set an acorn, here
and there, as they go along their hedge-
rows; and refrain from that barbarous prac-
tice of lopping and haggling the branches
from their trees indiscriminately. A Pollard
Ash does not look amiss when partially
thinned, leaving about a third part of the
youngest branches, and using a hand-saw
instead of the clumsy axe.

Returning from the forest and farmers’
fields to the landlords’ pleasure grounds,
a great variety of ornamental trees and tall
shrubs attract our notice. Such as Acca-
cia. Bird Cherry, Black Cherry, Elder,
variegated Holly, Laburnum, Laurel,
Maple, double-flowering Thorns, Snowball
Geulderose, Quinces, Mulberries, Med-
lar, &c. &c.

A very beautiful variety of those trees
and shrubs, is produced by grafting, by
nurserymen ; and are sold at various prices
according to the general catalogue. They
may be planted either single or in little
groves, on grass-lawns; and some of the
most elegant may be introduced nearer the
windows of the dwelling-house.

No pains ought to be spared in securing
single trees, whether they are meant for
ornament or use ; otherwise disappointment
will follow, and the planter will have the
mortification to find that his labor has been
in vain.

The best and most simple method of se-
curing young trees, in orchards or in grass-
lawns, where they are liable to be damaged
by hares, &c., is to tie a wreath of briers
or sloe-thorns gently round the stem. — The

manner of performing this operation is as
follows i — one person must hold the thorns
with the brush end upwards, with both
hands, at the height required, while another
person binds them gently with tarry-spun
yarn, or willow- wands. Another brush
must be placed immediately below, and
tied as before, until you come to the grounds
Two men can secure many trees in a short
time ; and this may be so neatly performed,
as not to be any eye-sore, even in pleasure
grounds.

Young trees, when planted, should not
be more than six or eight feet high : atten-
tion should be paid to the roots ; and the
stem should be well-grown : those which
are tall and slender should always be reject-
ed, as they never make hardy or thriving
trees.

TRAINING AND PRUNING.

In forest trees it is only necessary to ob-
serve to cut out, while young, all awkward
shoots, such as grow across, or take an
upright direction ; and thus robbing the
principal leader of its due share of nourish-
ment. All such luxuriant shoots ought to
be either cut entirely from the tree, or

6

shortened near a joint, leaving one of it»
feathers for the future branch. But if any
of those shoots are wanted to fill a bare
side in a tree, it may, whilst it is young,
be tied downwards to its mother stem with
a strand of bass-mat: this in the course of
one season, stops the luxuriant growth, and
gives it a horizontal direction. All up-
right branches are the most liable to be
torn away by high winds; therefore they
should be carefully watched in all kinds of
trees, and cut off when they are young.

The same method answers for orchard
trees : they should be trained as they ad-
vance in groAvth, with regular light tops,
displacing all awkward shoots before they
get to be two years old.

In seasons like 1816, when the frosty
nights began to be severe in September,
the young shoots of many trees, particularly
orchard trees, were frosted before the wood
had time to harden. A very disa^^reeable
appearance was exhibited the season fol-
lowing, the young shoots being all killed :
when this occurs, it not only destroys the
appearance of the trees, but is injurious
in producing the canker. The best me-
thod in this case is the following : — as soon

the fruit is gathered, before the fall of

the leaf, when tlie decaj^ed parts Begin to
appear let two men go into the orchard, pre*
pared with a proper step-ladder, a pair of
handy snap-shears, and a long light pole,
with an iron hook fixed at the small end, and
covered with leather that it may not hurt
the bark ; — with this staff one person stands
upon the ground and with his hook reaches
the branches and holds them gently to the
person in the step-ladder, who, with his
snap-shears lops the decayed ends near a
joint. It is better to cut some inches from
the sound wood than to leave any of the
damaged parts upon the branches. This
operation is easily performed, and is cer-
tainly worth the trouble, were it only for
the look of the orchard.

stv SHRUBBERIES-

'er,

rjj The beauty of shrubberies depends upon

0(j laying out the ground tastefully, and plant-

flQ ing the shrubs properly, according to the

,]. various sizes, &c.

le H is the situation of places that guides

the laying out of grounds to the best ad-
, vantage; and a judicious person ought to

^ be consulted when that is to be performed,

as much of the grandeur and future appear-

8

^nce of a place depends upon the first
planning and planting.

From the monthly list of shrubs, where
their proportionate size, <&;c. is to be seen,
it will be easy to select and plant with
judgment, according to rule and good or-
der. Begin planting with the tallest in
the back ground, and let the next in size
follow, and so on to the least class, which
will be chiefly roses, &c. next to the walk.

To offer a fixed space for the distance to
be allotted between each shrub, would be
needless here, as that depends upon the
nature and space of ground laid out for
that purpose, as well as the selection of
the plants. Therefore all that can be said
on the subject is, not to crowd the plants
too close, and to make the variety as pleas-
ing as possible,

PRUNING & TRAINING SHRUBS.

The greatest part of our beautiful shrubs
ought to be trained on single stems. Lau-
rels, (Portugal and common), have a grand
appearance when trained and pruned in
this manner, with light tops, something
resembling large orangeTrees, when in lit-

tie groves, or mixed in the shrubbery.'
Every shrub, according to its disposition,
or manner of growth and size, ought to be
trained on single stems, and pruned with
a sharp knife, cutting clean and close, so
that the stump of the branch may not be
observed, nor any unpleasant roughness
remain. It is entirely inconsistent with the
true method of improved modern English
Gardening when all shrubs are indiscrimi-
nately treated alike — clipped round with
a pair of shears, and sitting upon the ground
like hay-cocks. The only tool required is
a good pruning knife, which must be used
with judiciousness and care.

Clusters of HollyhockvS, and some of the
taller *herbaceous plants, such as the Bee
Larkspur, Perennial Sun Flowers, Bud-
beck ias, Monk’s Hood, Golden Rod, Asters,
or Starworts, commonly called Michaelmas
Daisies, Wall Flowers, Scarlet Lychness,
Sweet William, Iris, or Flower de Luce,
with many other beautiful flowering plants,
may be planted promiscuously in shrub-
beries, and will add greatly to the liveliness
of the borders in August and September,
when very few shrubs are in blossom.

Persons who wish to keep a collection of
native or indigenous plants, should allot a

10

piece of groiiiul for that purpose, and let
such plants be kept together in one place.
In this manner they have a good effect, if
the specimens are nicely arranged. But
when native plants are mixed among the
exotics they have the appearance of weeds.

HURDLE

For preserring single trees in Parks or
Pastures.

This Burdie has a sexangular form : — the
first figure represents the whole when put
round the tree : the second figure, with a
tree in the centre, is a section of the first.
I'he perpendicular supporters next the tree
may be made a foot high — those on the
outside of the Hurdle two feet high. The
<Iefending bars (as represented in figure
1.) should be about three feet long: their
projection on the outside should not be
uniform, but every second bar should pro-
ject six or eight inches beyond the inter-
mediate one; and they should besufficienly
rank to prevent cattle from approaching
between them to injure the tree. The
points should be made sharp. This Hurde
may be made in a rustic style, of planed
and painted wood, or of cast iron. Very

durable bars may be made from the staves
of old casks, cases, &c., at a very tritlino;
expense. It is unnecessary to olTer any
remark as to the manner ot* fixing the Hur-
dle, or to give a scale of its proportionate
pai4s: its size will vary according to the
size of the tree, and other circumstances,
which will easily guide a person of common
ingenuity to the adoption of the best plan.

DAHLIA.

A short Treatise on the management of
the Dahlia, for bringing the flowers to
perfection in the Midland Counties and
North Dritain,

The Dahlia is deservedly a much-admired
Perennial, — said to be a native of Mexico ;
and according to the Linnsean system, ar-
c 2

12

ranged in the second order of the nineteenth
class, f syngemsia snperflua). The grand
variety of the flowers of this plant add
much brilliancy to our pleasure grounds;
therefore to such persons as may not be
acquainted with the management of the
roots, &c., I will lay down the manner in
which I have been successful, and have
had the best early show of fine flowers. —
When the plant is to be raised from seed,
it must be sown in March, in pots of fine
vegetable mould ; the pots are then to be
set in a moderate hot-bed, watered, and
treated the same as Balsams, &c. Divide
the seedlings when about tw o inches grown,
into small pots, putting one seedling into
each ; then return them into the hot-bed
until they are sufficiently strong, and the
weather mild and settled for transplanting
them into the open ground. They require
a rich, open, but sheltered situation. Cover
the plants with small bell or hand-glasses,
until they are sufficiently rooted, observing
to water them regularly if the weather
should prove dry.— If the plants are strong
enough, plant them out tow ards the latter
end ot May. — They will flower in Septem-
ber and October the same season.

The second week in April (should the
weather prove favorable) is the best time

for re-plaiiting the old roots, which must be-
laid up ill sand during winter. The plants-
should be sheltered from frost and much
wet, as those, will be apt to destroy them,
x\t the lirst p6i*lod, a cover made of wood
and oil-paper, answers well for that purpose,
which may be made in the form of a hand-
glass. Continue to cover the plants in the
night time, until June. The Dahlia is a
very luxuiiant growing, plant, and requires
to be frequently ivatered during the heat
ami drought of summer. The first frosty
night destroys its beauty- and vigor; —
therefore no pains ought to be spared in
order to bring it to flower as early as possible.

1 have had the Dahlia flowering in great
perfection, from the middle of July, until
the latter end of October, at Levens Gar-
dens,. Westmorland.

The soil which answers best, is a rich
compost of very rotten old hot-bed dung,
and fine mellow vegetable mould, mixed
with about a sixth part of sea sand.

Digging up and Preserving the roots du-
ring winter.

As soon as the first frosty night has de-
stroyed the flowers of the Dahlia, (which
it never fails to do), let the stems he cut

14

down to the ground ; and on a dry day the
roots must be dug up carefully, being of a
tender texture. When the roots are dug
up, they are to be carried into a dry airy
shade, and there spread to dry a few days;
then pack them in boxes of dry sand ; or
if the roots are so large that you cannot
conveniently have them in boxes, they
may be packed up in a corner near the
greenhouse stove, or in any dr} place se-
cure from frost. Be sure to have a sufficient
quantity of very dry pit or drift sand, to
pack among the roots, whether in boxes
or in the corner of a shade. The same
treatment answers for the beautiful variety
of the plant called Marvel of Peru.

The Dahlia may be introduced into the
shrubbery with great advantage in grand
clusters on a south and sheltered side.
When planting for this purpose, dig a pit
and bring some of the aforesaid compost
and plant therein. The roots, for the
first three years from the seedling, should
be kept entire; afterwards divide the clus-
ter into two or four parts, according to its
size. When they are set in the pit, (before
the compost is put round them), fix three
short sticks in a triangular form round the
root, where it is meant to put the strong
stakes afterwards, to tie the stems up as

they advance. The first, or short stakes,
are merely to mark where the lar.ojer are
meant to be driven into the ground when
wanted ; otherwise there Avould lie danger
of injuring the plants. Three stakes, five
feet long, will be necessary for every clus-
ter or large root : they must be tied round
from stake to stake, Avith soft tarry spun-
yarn, or strong double strands of bass-mat.
Hollyhocks, &c. should be tied up in the
same manner.

The roots of the Dahlia are said to be
nutricious and wholesome ; and the French
gardeners enumerate them among their
kitchen as well as their ornamental plants.
In England, it is cultivated solely as an or-
nament to the dower garden.

GREENHOUSE PLANTS.

It Avould be a very neat and not expen-
sive improvement, to have a number of co-
ver-pots of various sizes, according to the
extent of the collection of plants required
to furnish the stages.

The doAver-pots which I wish to recom-
mend are made a^ the potteries. They are
of the same materials as the common pots.

but the colour and shape are diiFereiit : in-
stead of red or brick colour, free-stone
colour, which has a much neater appear-
ance.

The common pots, with the plants in
them, may be put within the clean pots ;
and when the plants are taken out in or-
der to be plunged in the borders of the
flower-garden, the common pot is easily
taken from the covered one, which is al-
ways to be kept clean.

Covers arc made for these pots of the
same materials, in the form of shallow sau-
cers, in two pieces, a place being left in
the centre for the stem of the plant, and
small holes to fix the sticks for tying them
up, as well as for admitting water to the
roots of the plants.

Those pots are very neat when odorife-
rous and grand flowering plants are placed
round the doors, porticos, colonades, win-
dows, &c. ; — and besides the neatness,
they are of great benefit to the plants, by
keeping the roots more cool, when exposed
to the scorching rays of the sun, during the
heat of summer.

Every person acquainted with the ar-

ranging of Greenliouse Plants, knows the
difficulty in j)lacing them to advantage, as
it very frequently happens that the plants
nud pots will not range according to their
proper size. Lesser pots, having tall plants
growing in them, must of course be placed
among large pots. The plants and not
the pots are generally considered : there-
fore, by keeping a sufficient number of
case-pots, you will be able to put the
whole in the neatest order, by putting the
common pot with the plant in it, within the
cover or clean one: if it should be too
large press a little moss between to hold it
firm.

THE FLOWEK GARDEN.

Many and various are the designs for
laying out tlower gardens, as persons for
the most part choose devices and forms,
according to their taste and fancy. The
plans laid down here (see plates) are only,
by way of example, to give some idea for
the direction of the ingenious mind to the
adoption of a better method, according to
system ; because w ithout good order in this
department, whatever the form or ingenu-
ity in laying out and dividing the ground
may be, it cannot give the desired gratiti-
D

18

cation, unless a beautiful and regular suc-
cession of the choicest flowers is continued
during the season. In order to obtain this
delightful arrangement, when laying out
or dividing any space of ground for that
purpose, observe to make the division
commodious Avhere the larger plants are to
be cultivated^ though it ought at all times
to be remembered, not to make any bed
or plat broader than a person can conveni-
ently reach to gather the flowers without
stepping on the soil, which ought to be
frequently stirred and raked neatly.

I am friendly to the fashion of laying
out flower gardens on grass lawns, surround-
ed with a shrubbery of the choicest species,
and at proper distances, clusters of Holly-
hocks, Dahlias, Delphiniums or Bee-Lark-
spurs, Heleanthemuins or perennial Sun
Flowers, Rudbeckias, Solidagos or Golden
Rods, Starry Asters or Michaelmas Daisies,
&c. ; those may be placed promiscuously
in the fore-ground of the shrubbery. Walks
should judiciously intersect the plantings,
in such manner as to lead to the most ad-
vantageous points for viewing the flower
garden and pleasure grounds. Plate II.
is a specimen for laying out a flower garden
on grass, either with or without Box edging
round the beds.

persons having the advantage and con-
venience of a good greenhouse, with forcing
frames, will be able to keep up the most
beautiful succession of brilliant and odori-
ferous dowers. During the summer months,
Geraniums, Heliotropiums, Balm of Gilead,
Fuchsia Coccinia, Verbena trililla, &c.,
turned out of small pots, and plunged into
the beds of the dower garden, will thrive
and have a good edect. The Lobelia Ful-
crens to succeed, when the Tulips have
done dowering and the roots are dug up.
Balsams, Amaranthus of sorts, African and
French Marigolds, China Asters of sorts.
Scarlet, Purple, and White Ten Week
Stocks, Convolvulus major and minor, &c.,
to succeed on the other vacant beds, where
the Jonquils Anemonies, Ranunculus,
Fritillaries, Hyacinths, &c. have done
dowering. The bulbous roots being pre-
viously dug up, and the beds prepared, by
adding and mixing a little mellow Compost.
The Annuals here enumerated may be
transplanted in the hottest months. If rear-
ed in a glass frame, upon a slender hot bed,
and divided at the proper period. Three
seedlings may be put into each small pot,
until they are well- rooted, and sufficiently
strong to be transplanted into the open
ground. This is by far the best method
for raising and transplanting tender Annu-

als^ and certainly well repays the requisite
pains and trouble.

Keeping the different plants tied up nice-
ly as their stems advance in growth adds
much to the neatness of the flower garden.

Though a volume mig^ht be filled with a
rotationary system and rules for managing
the flower garden, what I have inserted
may suflice to form the idea.

COMPOST,

Of Compost heaps which ought to he pre-
pared and kept in reserve for the pur-
pose of refreshing the divisions of the
flower garden.

F or the shrubs generally termed Ameri-
can Plants, good bog earth one half, the
mould of decayed tree leaves one fourth,
fine rich vegetable soil one fourth, thoge
must be well mixed and incorporated to-
gether, by frequent turning and chopping
with the spade for a twelve month at least
before it is used. All kinds of bulbous-
rooted plants thrive well in this compost.

For plants in general, the mould of de-

caved leaves, half-burnt sods from any j a ||

waste or common, vegetable soil, with a . j ;f ||

third share of neat’s dung; those should ? 1 ”

be turned and chopped from time to time,
for two years before it is used. ' ;;

I V egetable soil alone agrees with the most

part of plants, trees, and shrubs.

Whatever the nature of the compost may
be, it should be well mixed previous to its
being wanted or used. Raw composts and
hot manures are prejudicial to the roots of
ail kinds of trees and shrubs.

'(I

Covering the compost heaps with stable
dung, or the short grass mowings from
lawns, Ac., will keep down the weeds,
hasten the ripening, and improve the qua-
lity of the soil.

The following is a good method for pre-
paring beds for Pinks, Carnations, Ranun-
culus, and Anemonies: — Wherethe ground
iscankery, and subject to the wire-worm,
let the old earth be dug up fifteen inches
deep, and wheeled to a convenient place,
where it may be laid up in narrow ridges :
a quantity of brush wood and leaves must
then be collected and burned on the top of
the ridges ; but the fire should be checked
E 2

28

from bursting into a flame^ by continually
covering it with wet leaves, rotten grass,
&c., until the whole is consumed. While
the ashes are hot, mix it up with the earth
in one ridge, and in this state it may remain
a fcAV days. When it is to be used and
brought back to the beds, break the clods,
and throw it through a coarse screen, at the
same time adding a sixth part of good bog
earth: but before the prepared earth is
brought back, a layer of decayed lime must
be put three inches thick into the bottom
of each bed ; old rough cast, or that from
ceilings, is preferable: but if lime- rubbish
is not at hand, sea-coal ashes may be taken
in lieu.

Dress the surface of the Carnation and
Pink beds occasionally with fine rich ve-
getable soil.

It is impossible to ascertain correctly tlie
various altitude that trees, shrubs, or other
plants, will ultimately attain, as that de-
pends upon the soil and situation in which
they may be cultivated. What I have re-
marked will show the proportion they bear
to each other ; and this is all that can be
required in the arrangement of a flower
garden.

Though many more might be added to
the number of Ilerbaceous Plants, &c. in
the monthly list, a very grand and exten-
sive collection may be selected from the
foregoing list, which contains as much va-
riety as will be of real utility. To avoid a
tiresome repetition, I have endeavored to
mark the month in w hich the various plants
«kc. come into flower, though many of them,
in early seasons and in warm situations, may
flow er in the month before that in w hich I
have classed them 5 and may frequently
continue in great beauty for tw o months or
more ; and some flower twice in one season,
viz. first in the spring and afterwards in
autumn. — A very elegant succession of flow-
ers may be selected from the foregoing list,
and planted according to their magnitude
and color of blossom.

Of Indigenous Plants, such as are ge-

.51

iierally cultivated for urnanieiit and are
almost familiar, I have arranged specimens,
to convey more readily the meaning of the
classes and orders.

To the above many moremight be added;
but the preceding list contains a large va-
riety of the best sorts, and orchards to any
extent may be furnished from it.

Such persons as want only a few trees,
will find sufficient choice amongst those
marked with two stars : but regard must be
had to the time of their being in perfection,
in order to ensure a regular succession of
ripe fruit. Those who wish to plant ex-
tensive orchards, must ahvays choose two
of the double marked for every one of the
single, and three of the single marked, for
every one of the unmarked. Though the

59

time of ripening — being in perfection, as
well as the size, depend much upon the
season, &c., yet what I have stated will
suffice to give the idea of the difference be-
tween each sort. It would be well to cau-
tion farmers and owners of orchards, to be
careful whom they employ in lopping their
fruit trees, as I am aware that several in-
dividuals in the country, go about prepos-
sessing farmers and others, what wonders
they can effect by pruning and grafting ;
such bunglers are too frequently employed
haggling and spoiling young trees, ready
for bearing; changing the sorts, as they
term It. Their favorite grafts, or kinds,
are generally of the large soft codling spe-
cies, which will not keep, consequently
are poured into the markets in September
and October, in such quantities, that, in
the present season, (1818), when the crops
are abundant. Apples were in the said
months cheap as potatoes; but towards,
and after Christmas, keeping fruit sold
well.

When by winds, or accident, large
branches are damaged, so that they must
be cut from the tree, saw the limb (not too
close), say half an inch, from the armpit;
smooth with a draw knife the roughness
left by the saw, then apply to the wound

60

the foliowing cere Boil tar, while you |
mix it with soot, to the consistence of thick
paint. It must be laid on hot, with a |
painter’s brush, touching the wounded part ^
of the tree only, a thin coat ; and dash a
little dry ashes against it as soon as you co-
ver each wound. This is the safest and
best remedy for the purpose of excluding
rain, &c., that I know of. I have given
several other compositions, which have
been much extolled, a fair trial, and recom-
inend the above as proving by far the
simplest and best ; besides a little quantity
wil go a long way in using. Any shoot or
branch that can be neatly cut away with a
sharp knife, will soon heal without the aid
of compositions.

The same may be said of Pears as has
been remarked on Apples, respecting coun-
try grafting Ac., only the quantity brought
into the markets is few, compared with that
of Apples ; and they are in general of in-
ferior quality and short duration.

Pears grafted on good healthy wild Pear-
stocks, raised by layers, come sooner to
bearing : observe at the same time that the
grafts are taken from good full-bearing
healthy trees. The most part of our fruit
trees answer better on stocks raised by
layers, (if well performed, and selected
from their respective wild kinds), espe-
cially such as are intended for walls.

I look upon the proper method of layer-
ing the various kinds of trees and shrubs
which may be propagated in this manner,
to be the niceest practical or working part
of the art of gardening, or nursery. It is
practice alone that can teach any person to
be expert and successful.

I find the Mucle Plum Stock, raised by
layers, answers better than any other, for
almost every purpose that Plum Stocks
are wanted.

Plums will do tolerably well on stand-
ards, in sheltered situations, and are much
better planted on grass, being liable to
drop from the tree when ripe.

Washing wall fruit-trees in the course of
the winter, with soap-suds, does much
aood : but the using of pernicious mixtures,
such as tobacco, brimstone, lime-water, &c.
in order to destroy insects at the time of
fructification, is very injurious to the tender
fruit and foliage.

The author has found from experience,
that clean soft water alone, answers a much
better purpo.se, if sprinkled occasionally
over the trees, with an engine^i^ at the de-
ciinino’ sun.

FIGS.

1 Black Ischia, middle size, skin black when ripe, good flavored.

2 Brown Ischia, large, the best for hot-walls, good flavored.

Gooseberries are more various in tlieir
kind than any other fruit commonly culti-
vated in our gardens ; and the foregoing
list probably does not contain one-tenth
part of the various provincial and fancy
names given to this useful fruit in the dif-
ferent counties throughout Britain : but
the best sorts may be purchased by the
aforesaid names, from almost any extensive
nursery.

Yolumes have been written concerning
goosberrios, and the best method of pre-
venting their destruction by caterpillars.
The author begs to observe, that during
his long experience, he has seldom or never

71

Lad occasion to apply any remedy for this
species of vermin, because the plan he
adopts in rearing and managing the trees
most effectually prevents their behicf
brought into existence , — It is common for
persons when they first discover the cater-
pillar, to apply some remedy in order to
destroy them or prevent their increase:
this plan cannot have a good consequence,
for whatever destroys the caterpillar at
that period will injure the tree, and spoil
the fruit. — The author has adopted the
following plan with unvariable success.

When a new plantation or quarter of
gooseberries is to be made or renewed,
trench the ground about eighteen inches
deep, mixing plenty of rotten manure
from top to bottom, leaving the surface
smooth and level. When measuring, it is
best to drive a stake, at proper distances,
according to the best size and manner of
pruning, &c., with stems from one and a
half to two feet, forming nice light round
heads. The distance from plant to plant
should be eight feet. When you have done
planting, tie them gently with willow wands
to the stakes, in order to keep them steady
in the ground, to be trained as aforesaid.

Gooseberry bushes are apt to be blown

72

aside, and without the assistance of stakes
cannot be trained properly, to obtain clean
good-flavored fruit, besides they have the
advantage in the neatness of their appear-
ance, particularly in a gentleman’s garden.

In training young plants, attend them
during the summer season, encouraging
proper shoots, and rubbing away all awk-
ward and useless ones ; leaving what is only
convenient for the winter pruning: what
you take off* at that time, cut neat and
close, leaving no stumps or spurs. Top
the principal branches or shoots, according
to their strength, &c.

Should your trees be in danger of break-
ing by an over-load of fruit, drive four-
forked stakes at right angles round each
bush; then upon the fork ends rest four
rods, or slender rails, in order to support
the branches until the fruit is gathered.

Watering the roots of berry-trees, with
dunghill or farm-yard drainings, at the
time the fruit is setting and swelling, en-
courages and very much improves both
the berries and bushes.

Gooseberries and Currants require cool,
rich ground, but should not be shaded too

73

much from the sun, if it is intended to ha ve
the fruit good tiavored, which is more im-
portant than that it should be of an extraor-
dinary size. — Short grass mowings, from
lawns, &c. spread under the bushes, will
keep the ground moist, and the fruit clean.

When the trees begin to be mossy, rub
it otr, and wash them in winter with a mix-
ture of soap-suds, cow-dung, and soot,
made to the consistency of thick paint,
and laid on with a large soft painter’s brush.

The same sort of mixture and washing
answers well for old mossy orchard trees.

The Strawberry plant requires rich cool
soil; marine shells^ such as cockles, mus-
cles, oysters, &c. spread over the surface
of the beds, between the plants, will help
to keep the ground moist during siuynner,
and at the same time will keep the fruit
clean.

The above prices are taken from the
London Catalogues, and where nursery-
men pay enormous rents for their grounds;
however, as every practical person knows
that prices vary according to the nature
and scarcity of the article, the foregoing
will suffice to show the proportion the sorts
bear to each other.

The prices are put to the shrubs, &c.,
as purchasing a single plant of each sort.
Regular nurserymen charge according to
the goodness of their plants, making con-
siderable allowance for large orders and
good customers.

The most extensive plantings and shrub-
beries may be supplied from the foregoing

95

Catalogue. New varieties are obtained
every year from abroad, by the industry
and perseverance of our respectable
and excellent nurserymen, aided by the
first noblemen and gentlemen in the king^
dom.

The shrubs marked climbers are not all
of that class, but will not rise without
assistance. The Periwinkle cut-leaved
Bramble and Trailing Roses, &c., plant-
ed and hanging over natural rocks in shrub-
beries near foot paths and walks, have a
good effect.

The shrubs marked American are not all
natives of that quarter, only the most of
them require a similar treatment to what
are termed bog-earth plants : but our bog-
earth is not so salutary as the American,
therefore it should be prepared, and some-
what fertilized, by mixing about a third of
fine mellow vegetable soil, composed of
rotten wood and leaf compost. The shrubs
should be planted in a sheltered and ra-
ther moist situation. Little groves of thriv-
ing Rhododendrons, Ac., planted near a
rill, or spring, perchance in extensive
shrubberies have a very elegant and v/arm
appearance.
