Dear Sir, 



I have received your works and thank you very much; however, the two 

 seeds you enclosed for the botanical garden have already germinated and through 

 your kindness, the garden has now 8 Yucca species. Unfortunately, there was a 

 change at our Institution since our old Ohler died quickly and unexpectedly 

 end of June of this year. 



With regard to Juniperus Bermudiana I contacted Mr. Hochstetter in 

 Tübingen and hoped to obtain with his help the genuine fruits; however, he was 

 unable to help me. We have in our herbarium a specimen with flowers which was 

 collected by Dr. J. J. Rein (Professor of Geography in Marburg) in the Bermudas 

 and I take the liberty of sending you some of the flowers. 



For the open speces here, the Agave Utahensis is very much recommended 

 since it can stand our climate. Unfortunately, the prices are too high for our 

 modest circumstances. Perhaps you still own some seeds of this interesting 

 species which^äon't need and in such a case I should ask you to send them to us 

 for the benefit of our botanical garden. 



With best greetings, 



Sincerely yours 



Geyler
