To W. T. Thiselton-Dyer 15 April 1874
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.
Ap. 15. 1874
My dear Professor Dyer
Many thanks to you & Hooker— The seeds & plants have arrived, & are worth their weight in gold to me.1
When in London I will certainly try to get some ground-nuts.
yours very sincerely | Ch. Darwin
I had overlooked the little pot with germinating ground nuts.— What a splendid lot of Cassias & Trifoliums. There is nothing so good as observing a lot of species of same genus.— Tamarindus Indicus is the most valuable of all.—2
Summary
Thanks for the seeds and plants that he requested.
