6/6/82

Ich möchte durch diese wenigen Zeilen Sie nur befragen, lieber Herr Tepper, ob Sie noch das eine oder andere Exemplare von abzulassen haben, da ich die Pflanze genau mit der aus den Ländern des Mittelmeeres vergleichen möchte. Zwischen Adelaide u dem Port war vor 30 Jahren die Pflanze häufig.

Mit bestem Grusse

Ferd. von Mueller.

6/6/82

I should like just to ask through these lines, dear Mr Tepper, whether you still have one or other specimens of to give away, because I should like to compare the plant carefully with those from the countries of the Mediterranean. The plant was common between Adelaide and the Port 30 years ago.

With best greetings

Ferd. von Mueller.
