Dear Col. Prain

Many thanks for the nice seedlings & seeds you have sent me. It is a great pleasure to me to have such interesting & rare plants as P. uniflora, P. Wattin[?], & P. Elevesiana[?] which I hope to see flower next spring; while it is hardly less interesting to have unnamed seedlings and to have a mystery to solve [2] when the flowering time approaches. I am taking much trouble to have a suitable place to grow them in, and hope to have a very good show of flowers next year.

Again thanking you —

Believe me | Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
