too late, and one of the other virginica . I also have several 



other specimens, however the plant is still too small and insignificant to 

 send, as soon as I have better ones I will send you some, also flowers of the 

 various ones, Of the ferns I will send you some plants as soon as they can 

 be shipped, those just arrived are too weak, and then I will also send several 

 kinds more, I now have altogether seven different ones. Regarding the grapes, 

 the ones sent are of course only one kind but from different regions and 

 different in the time of blooming and ripening, which probably alone, where 

 they are growing, has its reason, the leaves are of course shiny on the 

 under side. I will see to it that I will send you some ripe grapes. This 

 has its difficulties in so far that the post-office will not accept such 

 things and express is too costly. It is very important to me to definitely 

 establish that it is Aestivalis , in which case it could later on probably 

 also be used to develop new Stands in France and Germany. 



I believe I have answered all of your questions, if I have forgotten 

 anything please let me know. 



Always at fonr Service, I am, 

 Respectfully 



Otto Ludwig
