September and October of 1863: A Visual Journey Through the Flowers of the British Countryside This photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the heart of the English countryside during the autumn season of 1863. The image showcases an enchanting array of flowers and plants that once flourished in the hedgerows and meadows of the period. In the foreground, the vibrant red hues of ripe Hawthorn berries (CRATAEGUS) adorn the branches of the hawthorn tree, their presence signaling the end of summer and the arrival of autumn. The thorny shrub, with its iconic white blossoms in spring, is a common sight in the British countryside and has been a source of food, medicine, and shelter for centuries. As we move towards the center of the photograph, the ominous Deadly Nightshade (BELLADONNA) can be seen, its bell-shaped purple flowers contrasting starkly against the lush greenery. This notorious plant, with its attractive yet deadly berries, has long been a subject of fascination and fear due to its potent hallucinogenic properties. The Greater Bindweed (CONVOLVULUS) vines, with their beautiful white and pink flowers, gracefully wind their way around the base of the trees and shrubs, creating a mesmerizing pattern that adds to the overall charm of the scene. In the background, the dark purple-black berries of the Blackberry bush (RUBUS FRUTICOSUS) can be spotted, ripe and ready for picking. These brambles, with their prickly stems and delicious fruit, have been a staple in the British diet for generations. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of the natural world during a bygone era, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the flowers and plants that once graced the British countryside in the autumn of 1863.
