GARDEN AND HERB SEED,
PRACTICAL DIRECTIONS UNDER EACH HEAD
FOR THE CULTIVATION OF
CULINARY VEGETABLES AND HERBS.
WITH A CALENDAR, SHOWING THE WORK NECESSARY TO BE DONE IN A
KITCHEN GARDEN.
ALSO, DIRECTIONS FOR FORCING OR FORWARDING VEGETABLES
OUT OF THE ORDINARY SEASON.
Having had twenty-four years' experience as a gardener
and seedsman, in the vicinity of New- York, I am aware of
the importance of correct information on the subject of gar-
dening; and, from a conviction that the reputation of many
honest seedsmen is often unjustly attacked in consequence
of the failure of seed, when the fault lies not with them, but
with the gardener, I have endeavoured, in my humble way,
to render myself useful both to the seedsman and gardener,
by giving brief directions for the management of a Kitchen
Garden, in such a way as is calculated to insure success.
