My dear Henry

Tho I hope to see you Monday I enclose Polygala Austriaca which perhaps you have not got – We have a curious little Myosotis here on the hills, with yellowish white flowers about the size of the smallest variety of M. scorpioides, which grows with it, & also a larger one, but no larger one with yellow flowers – it has some other minute differences in the position of its flowers ( distich 2 & erect, the other having them divaricate) but you shall see specimens. I have observed it here for many years.

Polygala major I suppose you know
