Author of Mawe's Every Man his own Gardener: or Gardener's Kalendar.
N. B. Eight Editions have been printed of
the Gardener's Kalendar. From a diffidence in
the Author, it was first published as the production of "Thomas Mawe, Gardener to his Grace the Duke of Leeds, and other Gardeners:" though written by Mr. Abercrombie; whose name has been added to that of Thomas Mawe, in all the Editions since the first.
