The intricate details captured in this print allow us to appreciate its unique characteristics, from its ciliate leaf margins to its showy blossoms. Originally featured in Paxtons Flower Garden by Professor Lindley and Sir Joseph Paxton revised by Thomas Baines in 1882, this artwork serves as both an educational tool and a celebration of nature's wonders. It invites us into the world of horticulture and encourages us to explore the vast array of flora found across different regions.
