25/10/65

I have written at lenght, dear Dr Hooker, in an other letter.

M to J. Hooker, 24 October 1865?

I omitted to mention that a large turf of has been sent to Kew pr Great Britain under care of Dr Alexander. It ought to be a fine greenhouse plant. I can send more of it, should it travel well. I am anxiously looking for a plant.

Your attached

Ferd Mueller

Will on arrival of the Great Britain you kindly send for the plant.
