Very pleased to receive CD’s dinner invitation.
Sends preserved pitchers and figure of Dischidia rafflesiana, a rare plant from East Bengal, which GK and the late John Scott had tried in vain to cultivate.
Thanks for Earthworms.
Glad CD liked the Dischidia drawing. GK wishes he could see it in the wild to study its habits and those of the insects that visit it.
Sends three specimens of Aldrovanda verticillata.
