Planning to visit Gibraltar and Morocco. Is there anything he can do for CD?
Thanks GM for offer of observations. Would be interested to know when the horns of merino rams first appear,
and has long wished for living specimens of Drosophyllum.
In Gibraltar he will make notes on merino lambs and Drosophyllum as CD requests.
Describes Drosophyllum and its habitat.
He has found abundant Drosophyllum in Andalusia.
Thanks GM for specimens of Drosophyllum; by a strange coincidence CD has also received plants from a correspondent in Oporto [W. C. Tait].
He is managing to salvage a few Andalusian Drosophyllum plants from the voyage and will send some to CD.
Thanks GM for specimens of Drosophyllum.
