From J. D. Hooker [12 October 1862]
Summary
Has sent two Impatiens flowers; curious to know what CD makes of the floral whorls and their vascular bundles.
Cassia is another genus that has different [coloured] anthers in same flower.
Continues to work on Welwitschia.
Feels as CD does about his work, which after a time seems flat and stale. He could never have done what CD did in his Orchids.
CD’s facts about Verbascum have horrible bearing on JDH’s practice of lumping species together.
