The Darwin Correspondence Project is publishing letters written by and to the naturalist Charles Darwin (1809–1882).

Hopes to have Lythrum hyssopifolium seeds to send soon.
BAAS is meeting in Cambridge and all eminent Cambridge men are wanted present. If his health were reliable, CD would be in chair of Botany and Zoology Section.
Believes the [Lythrum] seeds have been sent to CD by Stratton [Curator, Cambridge Botanic Garden]. They have none of the others requested.
