My dear Constance
As your brother 1 is not Coming till next week I have put off going to Bath until Monday.
The weather is very brilliant and all the plants come on rapidly – The first show is that of the Azaleas in the Conservatory.
There is there also a very handsome novelty a kind of Viper’s Bugloss which we have cultivated many years without flowering it – At last it has flowered, having grown large in a little pot, standing on the damp ground – The spike is deep blue, very long, and crowded – It repays the trouble of cultivation It seems a very uncommon plant.
I enclose flowers of Abutilon vexillare
Your affte
Henry
