The illustration is a masterpiece from the 19th century, created by the skilled hand of botanical artist E.D. Smith and meticulously engraved by Watts. The intricate detail and lifelike quality of the illustration transport us back in time to the horticultural world of the early 1800s. The Black-eyed Susan vine, also known as the Blue and Gold vine or the Orange Climbing Thunbergia, is a beautiful and popular ornamental plant native to South Africa. The vine produces clusters of bright yellow, funnel-shaped flowers with distinctive black centers, which resemble the eyes of a Susan, hence the common name.

The publication of Flora and Pomona marked a significant contribution to the field of botanical illustration and horticulture in the 19th century. The illustration is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, and serves as a reminder of the rich history of botanical exploration and documentation. The yellow flowers and leaves of the Black-eyed Susan vine continue to captivate gardeners and plant enthusiasts around the world, making this illustration a timeless treasure in the annals of botanical history.
