EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming chromolithograph depicts the exquisite Pompon rose, Rosa centifolia var. pomponia, a multifloral beauty that was a favorite among Victorian gardeners and horticulturists. The illustration was created by Desire Bois and published in Edward Step's "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse" in 1896 by Frederick Warne in London. The Pompon rose, also known as the Moss Rose or the Bourbon Pompon, is a lovely variation of the Centifolia rose, known for its distinctive round, pom-pom shaped flowers. Each bloom is a symphony of delicate petals, arranged in perfect symmetry, with a diameter of about 2 inches (5 cm). The flowers appear in clusters, creating a lush, full appearance. The Pompon rose is a popular choice for gardeners due to its repeat-flowering habit and its ability to thrive in various climates. The flowers come in various colors, including pink, red, white, and yellow. In this illustration, the rose is depicted in its pink form, with its velvety petals unfurling to reveal their soft, rosy hue. The intricate details of the Pompon rose are beautifully captured in this chromolithograph, with each petal, vein, and leaf rendered in vivid color. The background features a delicate, textured design, adding to the overall elegance of the image. This botanical illustration serves as a testament to the artistry and dedication of Victorian horticulturists, who took great pride in cultivating and documenting the beauty of their gardens. The Pompon rose remains a beloved flower today, gracing gardens and bouquets with its enchanting, pom-pom shaped blooms.
