Herbarium history:
The K. W. Allison Colleciton No. H. 3,443
Herbarium history:
Ex herb P.R.S. [Plant Research Station = CHR] sent by Mrs. Hodgson [to K.W. Allison]
Supplementary remarks:
The collector A.H. may refer to Amy Hodgson but she was usually abbreviated by K.W. Allison to E.A.H. or more usually written as Mrs E.A. Hodgson.
I wonder if the collector was acutally A. Hamilton.
