1 1757-1772 George Washington sent orders for Chinese porcelain to Bristol and London. During this period he had bought Chinese porcelain from a famous Chinese dealer. Among Chinese porcelain ware, he had a special fondness for blue-and-white porcelain.
2 1785 George Washington : Diary July 8 (1785).
Washington chose a good place next to the garden wall in his botanical garden and sowed the Chinese flowers seeds given by Mr. Porter and James Craik. He took a detailed record of the procedure he used to plant the seeds. His experiment failed : "Whether these plants are unfit for this climate, or whether covering and thereby hiding them entirely from the Sun the whole winter occasioned them to rot, I know not."
