Excerpt from Curtis's Botanical Magazine, 1874, Vol. 100: Comprising the Plants of the Royal Gardens of Kew and of Other Botanical Establishments in Great Britain, With Suitable Descriptions
Allow me to dedicate to you this volume of the botanical magazine, as a tribute to the value of your exertions in intro ducing hardy herbaceous plants into English gardens. No one of late years, or perhaps ever, has collected with his own hands so many of these for transmission to England, cultivated them with more suc cess, or distribumd them with more liberality - as the pages of this work to some small extent testify.
