- Description
- Jardine Correspondence transcribed by Jean Kelly August 2021. Transcription: Mr Walter Jardine. Grahamstown. Cape of Good hope. Sir, Most likely by the time this note will reach you, you will be in possession of the invoice of Camellias, and I hope in satisfactory condition. With the plants which you intend to return to me in exchange I should much like to have a good lot of bulbs of Disa grandiflora and superba, an orchid which is very likely well known to you and which is said to grow abundantly near the Cape Town. Please try and send me a nice lot of it. Awaiting your further obliging favours, I remain Sir Yours obediently, A Van Geert.
