N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

not sure where this was collected. Is the garden mentioned also at Redbridge?

[mossysal]

Somewhere on the H@H site we are asked to put both sites if it has been collected from the wild and then cultivated. I've added the Redbridge site but there are no details of where it was cultivated - maybe Townsend's own garden? I can't find anything else about him. I've also added both dates which may be less than useful!

[chrisu]

Quite annoying that he hasn't specified the garden
