Transcription:
As illegible Garrya Praising my forestry work, tree planting Martinez, Feb. 6, 1900. My dear Mr. Lukens, The bush of
which you sent me a specimen is Garrya. It belongs to the dogwood family. There are four species in Cal. This is probably
Garrya flavescens. I hope you will have grand success in your blessed work of pine planting. Remember me to all the family
believe me ever cordially Yours John Muir
