To Baron Von Mueller
Sir
I am sending you a flower that I think might be of some interest to you, it is new
to us.
I sent you some specimens some time back, and wrote a note, which I could not find
when taking them to post, I thought I might have put it in with the parcle
in mistake, I hope you received them all right.
