Letter to Frederick Orpen Bower from JI Gibb

1

Letter to Frederick Orpen Bower from JI Gibb informing Bower that he has received the ferns back from Richard Henry Yapp and has sent them on to him. He has sent all of the Cleandra fern specimens to give Bower a better idea of their peculiar habit. He believes that Bower can do nothing with the other fern as Yapp believes the plant cannot be dendroid but is formed instead of one long frond. He asks Bower to return anything he does not require to the British Museum.
