The very handsome plant, just sent by you, dear Miss Brotherton, is the Cheiranthera linearis. It is rather rare, and in the progress of rural operations disappears more and more. It constitutes a pretty pot-plant; so that I should like to get well ripened seeds, if such can1 easily procured later in the season.
If any of the 65 plants, exhibited at the Castlemaine-show, should require naming, I will do it with pleasure.
Regardfully your
