Is working on horticultural considerations of Cape plants and would welcome information on the temperature just below the surface of the soil in relation to the temperature of the air.
Not much is known about the circumstances that affect the color of plants. JH's researches will be valuable if they throw any light on the subject. Comments on the various theories affecting the color of plants.
Has just heard that JH would like some deodar seeds; so he encloses some. Could also supply some young plants if he would like them.
Twelve deodar plants are being dispatched by coach. If JH plants the seeds now he should have nice young plants by the autumn. Would be obliged for his paper on vegetable photography.
Wonders if JH could be persuaded to write a series of articles on meteorology for the Gardeners' Chronicle. If unable, could he suggest a suitable substitute?
