Summary:
JDH discusses exchanging plants with Lady Hyacinth Jardine [later Hooker]. He would be glad to accept large quantities of Gualtheria [Gaultheria] Shallon & instructs how they should be selected & packed for transport. He would also like some Rhododendron hybrids, Primula farinosa & roots of Typha angustifolia for the pond. JDH recommends that Sir William [Jardine] cultivate small palms. JDH plans to take his wife Frances Hooker [née Henslow] to the south of France & hopes the warmer climate will help her recovery from influenza. If the Jardine's gardener can supply it JDH would like moss for packing & Sphagnum for orchids & will send plants in exchange.
