Thanks HTS for a Dahlia flower, but analogous cases of such "bud-variation" have been observed before.
Comments on CVR’s paper [‘Further notes on the pollination of Yucca and on Pronuba and Prodoxus’, Proc. Am. Assoc. Adv. Sci. (1880): 617–39]. ‘What an inaccurate man Mr Thomas Meehan is.’ Interested in further observations on Pronuba.
Writes, as a former correspondent, asking CD for a testimonial.
Knows nothing of AGM’s work and is not personally acquainted with him so he cannot provide a testimonial.
