Nonne videmus alia florere verno tempore, alia aestivo, neque eadem autumnali, quae hiberno? Itaque alia seruntur atque inseruntur et metuntur ante aut post quam alia; et cum pleraque vere quam autumno inserantur, circiter solstitium inseri ficos nec non brumalibus diebus cerasos.
Do we not observe that some blossom in spring, some in summer, and that the autumn growth is not the same as the winter? Thus some plants are sown and grafted and harvested earlier or later than others; and while most are grafted in spring rather than in autumn, figs are grafted near the solstice, and cherries actually in mid-winter.
