Valediction only of a letter stuck into a writing case.
Thanks WAL for specimens and observations [on scarlet runner beans]. CD is perplexed whether to account for the changes as due to simple variation or to crossing. The information will be used when he finally comes to a conclusion on the subject [see Cross and self-fertilisation, p. 151].
Apologises for the trouble he has caused over his enquiries about strawberries. Describes the problems he and Emma have had with Verbascum.
For his work on dimorphism, CD asks WAL if he can send roots of two forms of Epilobium angustifolium. He doubts that they are reciprocally connected like the two forms of Primula, but will try the experiment.
Acknowledges election as Honorary Member of Shropshire and North Wales Natural History and Antiquarian Society.
Tells WAL where specimen of Cynoglossum sylvaticum may be seen growing.
Thanks for procuring cuttings of weeping yew.
