Summary:
Sorry to hear of Smith's indisposition; her health has been indifferent. Hopes to come to London next month. Dissatisfied with [James] Sowerby's figure of her 'Asclepias carnosus'. Hopes to attend Smith's botany lectures. Has a plant of the "Peay Tree". Fears the subscription cost for "Flora Graeca" will be too expensive for her.
