Savi. Flora (13: 286. 1830) reports that the Grand-Duke of Tuscany bought Raddi's private herbarium and donated it, with the Egyptian collections, to [[Collection PI|PI]]. – Letters to A.P. de Candolle at [[Collection G|G]]. #### Bibliography and biography AG 3: 199; Backer p. 481; Barnhart 3: 122 (b. 9 Jul 1770, d. 6 Sep 1829); BM 4: 1637; Bossert p. 322; CSP 5: 72, 11: 91, 12: 595; Frank 3 (Anh.): 80; GR p. 520, *pl*. \[*28*\]; GR, cat. p. 70; Herder p. 472 \[index\]; Hortus 3: 1202; IF p. 726; IH 1 (ed. 2): 51, (ed. 3): 62, (ed. 6): 363, (ed. 7): 340, 2: (in press); Jackson p. 316, 371, 373; Kew 4: 264, 388; Langman p. 327, 337, 343, 478, 505, 543; LS 21654-21659; NI 1576, also 1: 156, 189; PR 7388-7391, 9033, ed. 1: 8288-8298; Rehder 5: 699; Saccardo 1: 134, 2: 88; Sayre, p. 34, 58, 64, 66; SBC p. 129; TL-1/1020-1022; Tucker 1: 575; Urban-Berl. p. 34; Zander ed. 10, p. 704, ed. 11, p. 803. #### Biofile - Anon., Ann.
