Melbourne bot. Garden

10/5/72

It will afford me much pleasure, dear Major Purchas, to supply again this season plants to the general Cemetery so far as the reduced means of my Department admit of it.1 Will you kindly let me know for how many trees and how many shrubs the ground is actually prepared and send for the plants any morning at 9 o'clock.

your regardful

Ferd. von Mueller
