Eventually another process began, taking place either by chance or under the skilful manipulation of the gardener that of hybridizing, or crossing these foreign varieties with our hardier native species.

But it is above all necessary, for our present manipulation, to regard the real object in hand, or the real elements into which we have resolved it, as provisionally final, and to treat them as so many units.
