Bartram's botanic garden

884. At and near Philadelphia are Bartram's botanic garden, now the nursery of Colonel Carr, and accurately described by his foreman, Mr. Wynne (Gard. Mag., vol. viii. p. 272.); Messrs. Landreth and Co.'s nursery; and that of Messrs. Hibbert and Buist ; besides some commercial gardens in which, to a small nursery with green and hot-houses, are added the appendages of a tavern. These tavern gardens, Mr. Wynne informs us, are the resort of many of the citizens of Philadelphia, more especially the gardens of M. Arran, and M. d'Arras ; the first having a very good museum, and the latter a beautiful collection of large orange and lemon trees.
