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.

interesting that Marshall collected in these locations on consecutive days

[Chris Liffen]

Marshall was Curate at Witley for a while
http://www.meiosis.org.uk/botanists/marshall-edward-shearburn-1858-1919/.

It would seem possible that the plant / seeds that he collected in mid Perthshire in 1888 was / were grown in his garden the following year and this is a note to that effect (fl hort propr).

[oldnick]

Thanks, and sorry I missed the obvious! 'propr' then may indicate OWN garden?

propre - might (going back more years than I care to remember) translate as near .....
But DP says propius (OE) - one's own, so original thought probably the right one.
