To John Obadiah Westwood 25 June [1860]
Summary
Would like to borrow the bees that, as reported in Gardeners’ Chronicle, were sent to JOW with pollen-masses of orchids sticking to them. CD has never seen a bee visit an orchid. He believes he could identify the genus and perhaps species of the orchids the pollen comes from.
His health is too bad to attend the meeting [of British Association for the Advancement of Science].
