Sends a paper he has written [on scarlet runner].
Comments on THF’s MS [on fertilisation of scarlet runners]. Suggests publication, though CD anticipated main features ten years before. Is amused at the caution with which THF put his case that the final end [of the contrivances] was crossing distinct individuals.
Encouraged by CD’s reply. Sends another paper, on blue Lobelia.
Asks advice on books.
Will send THF’s paper [on scarlet runners] to Annals and Magazine of Natural History with a note recommending publication [see 6384].
Suggests books on Lobelia.
Sends an addition to Lobelia paper; admires adaptations for fertilisation.
Informs THF that Annals and Magazine of Natural History will publish his paper [see 6384].
Wonderful how every flower one looks at is explained by, and throws light on, the fertilising process.
