William Burness, the father of the poet, was a native of Kincardineshire, and 'was thrown by early misfortunes on the world at large. After many years' wanderings, he at last settled in Ayrshire, where he worked at first as a gardener before taking a lease of some seven acres of land near the Bridge of Doon, and beginning business as a nurseryman.
This species was introduced from Jamaica about 1808, by a nurseryman in Hammersmith; but as no Echinocactuses are wild in the West Indian Islands, it must have been introduced into Jamaica from some of the Central American States, or probably from Mexico. It may be grafted on to another free-growing kind with advantage, as it does not always keep healthy when on its own roots.
"No, you mustn't go with me, David. There are too many things to do for to-night " "Let me go, Vina," Bedient said. In the cab, she told him the story of Mary McCullom's failure as an artist and conquest as a woman the same story she had told Beth Truba and what meant the love of the nurseryman to Mary McCullom. Vina's voice had a strange sound in the shut cab.
That worthy was gifted with a rare capacity for taking the initiative in all things, when permitted to do so, and had instituted himself in the consul's mansion as assistant gardener, assistant cook and hostler, assistant footman and nurseryman, as well as general advice-giver and factotum, much to the amusement of all concerned, for he knew little of anything, but was extremely good-humoured, helpful, and apart from advice-giving modest.
He loves me, and oh, he's so wonderful!... I kissed her in an awed way and asked about him.... 'Oh, he's just a nurseryman trees, you know, but he lo we're so happy!... Oh, Beth," Vina finished in a lowered voice, "something eternal, something immortal happens, when a man brings love to a thirsting woman!" "Not tea, but strong tea," Beth observed.
It excited Bouvard's imagination so much that they sought immediately in their books for a nomenclature for purchasable plants, and, having selected names which appeared to them wonderful, they applied to a nurseryman from Falaise, who busied himself in supplying them with three hundred stalks for which he had not found a sale.
Neither the head master nor his assistants knew any thing. The nurseryman had heard it said that No. 23 belonged to an Englishman; but he had never seen him, and did not even know his name. The locksmith knew that he was called Francis Burnett.
He got away in the confusion following the raid, and has been hiding ever since with a cousin, a nurseryman out Upminster way..." "Hiding?" snapped Smith. "Exactly hiding. He has been afraid to stir ever since, and has scarcely shown his nose outside the door. He says he is watched night and day." "Then how..."
Another difficulty is the over vigorous growth of the trees, and the care required to restrain them within proper bounds. An impetus was given to the erection of Orchard houses in England, by Mr. Rivers, the celebrated nurseryman and fruit grower, by the publication of his little work on the subject of Orchard houses, in which he advocated the growth of trees in pots.
From Korshinsky's survey of varieties with cut leaves or laciniate forms the following cases may be quoted. In the year 1830 a nurseryman named Jacques had sown a large lot of elms, Ulmus pedunculata. One of the seedlings had cut leaves. He multiplied it by grafting and gave it to the trade under the name of U. pedunculata urticaefolia. It has since been lost.
