Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Manual of Flower Gardening for Ladies: With Directions for the Propagation and Management of the Plants Usually Cultivated in the Flower Garden
The nomenclature of soils is exceedingly vague and indefinite; no very precise meaning being attached to the popular terms Clayey, Loamy, Sandy, and Peaty soil. An explanation of the common acceptation of these terms will, however, su?ice for the present purpose; and those readers who incline to a more scientific acquaintance with the nature of soils must apply to some modern work on Agricultural Chemistry.
