In the description given of this place by Mr. Caie, gardener to Her Grace, he says: "Little difficulty will arise in procuring and preserving the plants enumerated in the foregoing list Many of them are hardy perennial herbaceous plants; and most of the others, which are annual, will, if allowed to stand to ripen their seeds, sow themselves. The kinds which will require most practical knowledge are those which are generally termed green-house plants; but which are so hardy as to produce as splendid a show in our flower-gardens during the summer months; as they would do if they were in their native countries. As it is with this latter class of plants that we hare most to do in filling flower-gardens during summer, it will here be my object to show how they may be preserved during winter, without the aid of greenhouses. The pits in which such plants should be kept, will require to have their walls of 14-inch brickwork, and pigeon-holed; with tiles half an inch thick, set on edge, 2 inches from the wall inside, to be carried as high as the pigeonholes; in which small apertures may be left, in order that a little steam may be admitted into the pit, from dung linings or dead leaves, if necessary: but no heat from dung linings will be required, except in the most severe weather, and then only just sufficient to keep out the frost.

The heat of the dung or leaves, applied to the outside of the walls, will readily penetrate into the pit, having nothing to oppose it but the thin tiles set on edge. September will be quite soon enough to begin putting in cuttings. The soil in which they are to be inserted should consist of equal portions of peat earth and silver sand; and those of them that are subject to damp off may have a greater proportion of the sand. The pots or pans in which the cuttings are put should be well drained."
