Dear Dr. Furtado, 
> 
I am sending you some seeds. 
These are only 
a few of the ? 
A 
species from my garden* I will try to get more. I brought this 
plant from the manager’s garden on Effingham Estate Kuala lumpur. 
It was grown by his cook who called it arai keerai. 1 have written 
for further particulars but have no reply yet. 
Also a small plant in my garden ? an fixalis. 
t, vj 
I have planted the polygonum munis and I hope it will grow. 
The Philippine analyses will be a useful addition. 
You mentioned ohana-thumpa or something similar before. This 
is Telegu for a^ morphophallus campan^ilatus. 
I am making a list of the cucurbits and beans of which the 
leaves may be edible and will check up on these. 
Thanks for the Gardens Bulletin vdiich I am returning. 
I wonder what Mr. Wallen's ? Brassica/ a wild species was. 
Yours sincerely, 
V
