Melbourne bot Garden,
28/2/69
I was happy, dear Prof Decaisne, to complete by a sending, made this mail to Mess. R. Gomer & Co. at Marseille, the copy of the fragmenta in your possession. I could not yet send the VI vol.; for altho' it was finished in December, the index will be printed only next month.
Accept my cordial thanks for your goodness in sending the seeds through Professor Lejourdan
I am glad you pointed out the shortcomings of my seed-department. I will endeavour to see them avoided. To Mons. Naudin some seeds are send by this mail. Others will be forwarded hereafter.
A copy of my brief report on the general vegetation of Australia1 shall be sent by next mail.
Thanking you, honored and learned Sir, for all attention I remain your very regardful
Ferd. von Mueller
