Parkstone, Dorset.

June 22nd. 1899

Dear Mr. Deane1

I am glad to tell you that the Blandfordia bulbs you were so good as to send me have some of them started growing in the sphagnum moss, and I think 3 or perhaps 4 of them will live & that I shall be able to grow them till they flower. I have also now got in flower the blue water lily from S.[outh] Africa.

Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
