Engelmann, George Nov. 19, 1867 [2] (seq. 277)

as that fine Delphinium, which
were crushed and broken from
by tying the bundle I suppose.
The wet sugar paper (Wright's?)
was immediately removed and
did no harm.

Well, I have another box
from Parry, cost $11. — smaller
but containing more and better
plants.

And here you must advise
me how to do. Many plants
are in single sp. only, others
in large numbers. I have
now arranged them — no small
labor, as sps of the same species
were often scattered through the bundles,
and will number them.

You say you want a set —
not of the common plant-lfora —
Psoralea lanceolata, Callirhoe etc?
Sarcobatus. — ?

Do you want more of
the rarer ones? or shall I

now send only single specimens
leaving you to order more
after having seen the plants?
— It would be better for you
but extra trouble ? What
shall I do with the seeds?
Write soon about these things.
My time is short and wil
be very much occupied and
now much taken up with patients
so that little day light is left
for botany. And the time
for packing up and leaving
my house approaches appalling-
ly fast March 1st for which
date I have rented it out.

Boot's Najas is exactly the same
as Peck's, I can not connect it
with minor — must be a new
species.

Thanks for Philepaea {Phelypaea} comosa;
yes, Parry's is a new species
— {Phelypaea} erianthera — unfortunately
only 2 or 2 1/2 specimens.
