To William Thiselton-Dyer   18 September 1892

18/9/921

 

The enclosed seeds, dear Dr Dyer, containing some few well developed grains, are from the highly ornamental Eucalyptus erythronema, the filaments of which are deep crimson. In all probability this species is not yet in culture, as it is a very rare one.

Regardfully always your

Ferd von Mueller
