& very beautifull, but the Seed of the Duchess, which is in the same box, is still more so, it grows in a good rich Soil & I have never seen it on dry or Sandy grounds - the seeds are in a small box - all the other Seeds of which there is no great quantity, grow on dry Sandy or Stony Soils. The Seed of the Duchess or Cumberland Tree, are just gather'd, the Tree flowers in february, March & April.

I have the honor to be with great esteem
Dear Sir
Your Most Obedient
Humble Servant
A Phillip
