The Dell, Grays, Essex.
Oct[obe]r. 11th. 1873.
Dear Dr. Hooker
You were so good as to promise me a few more of your dupli surplus perennials if I sent you a list of what I have.
I now enclose a list,1 & I have marked with a — X — those groups of which I should like to have any additional species. Also a few seeds of genera of which I should be glad of any species.
About half of the Australian seeds have come up, & some [2] are growing very nicely, but how many will stand the winter out of doors remains to be seen. I have a small greenhouse in which I keep duplicates for another year's trial.
Believe me | Yours very faithfully | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
