Thanks for posting.. I'd never heard of him before and was interesting reading the article of what he did, bringing in exotic plants and trees.

Made me think of how great it is to have the technology to have a place like this forum where people from all over the world can share seeds and plants with each other. It's great that he lived into this day and age to experience these changes that makes what he did be able to move forward so easily.
