To James Drummond 22 November [1860]
Summary
JD’s letter of 17 Sept about Leschenaultia not seeding is surprising. CD’s experiments point to insects which, though perhaps not indispensable to their fertilisation, are useful to it. Would like to know whether the flower of Leschenaultia is visited by bees or other insects.
JD’s offer to send seeds of Distylis and the other genus is of greatest possible interest.
