If you receive any of the Florida Sarracenia I shall be
happy to get a plant or two. Enclosed are a few fresh seeds
of Gillia tricolor [Gilia tricolor] which you may plant in your garden next
spring. The seed you sent me last spring & it is truly one of the
most beautiful annuals I ever saw-- flowering till severe 
frosts.

Is the promised introduction to Botany in press yet?
Pray do you know anything in cultivation of Psoralea
esculenta which Pursh states to be a staple article of 
diet (in its roots) among the western Indians? Is it
found in the Northern States?

I remain Dear Sir
Very Sincerely Yrs
