To B F. v. Mueller
K.C.M.G.
Sir
Many thanks for the useful work of Forest culture.1
I enclose a flower of the water liley that grows here I will send the leaves and bulb next mail.
The flower was dried in hot sand and I send it that way by way of experiment should it travel well I shall be glad as many flowers are difficult to dry.
Obediently
Yours
W Shann
