To Baron Von Mueller.
Dear Sir.
Would you please mind telling me what the name of this flower is. We have it growing
in our garden I send a seed, flower, and leaf, would it be troubling you too much
if I sent you specimens of strange plants which I sometimes find in the scrub about
Cairns and Myola things I have never seen before.
Hoping you will not think it a bother
I remain
yours truly
Grace Allen
