EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-finished chromolithograph by Henry Noel Humphreys, based on an original illustration by Jane Loudon from her seminal work "Mrs. Jane Loudon's Ladies Flower Garden of Ornamental Perennials," published in London in 1849, showcases an enchanting array of Rocket and Candy Tuft species. The intricately detailed print features an exquisite collection of flowers, each one a testament to the natural beauty and diversity of these plants. The Large-flowered Garden Rocket (Hesperis grandiflora) and Showy Rocket (Hesperis speciosa) are depicted in full bloom, their vibrant, star-shaped blossoms a stunning contrast against the lush green foliage. The Fragrant Rocket (Hesperis fragrans) is highlighted for its delightful aroma, while the Seaside Malcolmia (Malcomia littorea) and Field Moricandia (Moricandia arvensis) are showcased for their coastal and meadow habitats, respectively. The Tenores Candy Tuft (Iberis tenoreana) and Rock Candy Tuft (Iberis saxitalis) are presented in their charming, tufted forms, adding texture and color to the composition. The Underground Morisia (Morisia hypogea) and Armenian Hedge Mustard (Erysimum ibericum) are included for their unique growth habits, while the Winged Aethionema (Aethionema membranaceum) and Short-stemmed Whitlow Grass (Draba brachystemon) add a delicate touch to the arrangement. This beautiful print not only serves as a stunning decorative piece, but also as a testament to the rich botanical knowledge of the past and the enduring beauty of these Rocket and Candy Tuft species. It is a must-have for any gardening enthusiast, natural history collector, or anyone who appreciates the intricacies of the natural world.
