Dear Baron
As in the absence of the literature upon the New Guinea Flora I am unable to work satisfactory upon the flora of that country I would be glad of information as to whether the enclosed is a named species or not. Plants of it frequently flower in our gardens. And are said to have been secured from N Guinea —
Yours very truly
