Satureia.

S. montana, winter or perennial savory. S. hortensis, summer or annual savory.

They may be sown in the open ground in spring. In the latter end of March or in April, sow the seed in a light rich soil, moderately thick, and rake them in evenly; the seedlings soon come up; give occasional weeding, and thin them moderately, and they may either remain where sown, or may be transplanted. Observe, however, of the Winter Savory, that when the seedlings are about two or three inches high, it is eligible to plant out a quantity of the strongest, in moist weather, in nursery rows six inches asunder, to remain till September or spring following, then to be transplanted with balls where they are finally to remain, in rows a foot asunder. But the Annual or Summer Savory may either remain where sown, thinning the plants to six or eight inches' distance, or when two inches high may be pricked out in beds, in rows the above distance ; in either case the plants will become useful in June or July, and until winter. Or when designed to have the Winter or Summer Savory remain where sown, the seeds may be sown in shallow drills, either in beds, or along the edge of any bed or border by way of an edging.

By Slips, Etc

In the spring or early part of summer, the Winter Savory may be increased plentifully by slips or cuttings of the young shoots or branches, five or six inches long ; plant them with a dibble, in any shady border, in rows six inches asunder, giving occasional waterings, and they will be well rooted by September, when they may be transplanted.
