FROM PUBLIC GARDENS, KYNETON (Near Melbourne), AUSTRALIA 
T am pleased with your strain of Aquilegias, now in full bloom. Unique 
colors among them. Mr. D - sent me seeds of several English strains at 
about the same time, so I am comparing them. So far yours are much the 
best. Your Heucheras are also blooming and are fine." 
(Later) "Re Aquilegias: I gave a lecture on these flowers at the last 
meeting of the Horticultural Society and you may like to know that 
I took a large bunch of Hoodacres Strain, which proved a revelation to 
the Society for the beautiful new colors."
