COMMENTS
a(n) is the number of ways of placing n labeled balls into indistinguishable boxes, where in each filled box 6 balls are seen at the top.
a(n) is also the number of forests of labeled rooted trees of height at most 1, with n labels, where each root contains 6 labels.
FORMULA
E.g.f.: exp(exp(x)*x^6/6!).
MAPLE
a:= proc(n) option remember; `if`(n=0, 1,
add(binomial(n-1, j-1) *binomial(j, 6) *a(n-j), j=1..n))
end:
seq(a(n), n=0..30);
