EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of Coral Drops, Bessera elegans, also known as Hollow-leaved Pharium or Fistulosum. The image, created by skilled engraver S. Watts based on an original illustration by William Herbert, was published in the esteemed Botanical Register in Ridgeway, London, in 1832. The Coral Drops is a fascinating plant, characterized by its delicate, bell-shaped flowers that resemble tiny corals suspended in mid-air. The hollow, tubular leaves of this plant are a unique feature, adding to its allure. The intricate details of the veins and textures are beautifully captured in this engraving, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of this botanical wonder. The Coral Drops is a native of South America and was first described by botanist Carl Linnaeus in 1753. It is a popular ornamental plant, often grown in greenhouses due to its exotic appearance. The plant belongs to the Phrymaceae family and is known for its ability to produce a large number of seeds, which are often used in horticulture. This stunning engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific accuracy of the Botanical Register during the 19th century. It provides us with a glimpse into the past, allowing us to marvel at the beauty and diversity of the natural world as it was documented and celebrated during this time.
