EDITORS COMMENTS
Umbilicus Chrysanthus, also known as Venus Navel, Venusnavel, Navelkraut, or Cotyledon Chrysantha, is a captivating perennial flowering plant belonging to the Crassulaceae family, commonly referred to as stonecrops. In this evocative close-up photograph, the plant's vibrant, star-shaped, golden-yellow flowers take center stage against a backdrop of weathered rocks. The Umbilicus Chrysanthus, with its intriguing name, has a rich history. The term "Venus" is derived from ancient mythology, where the plant was believed to have grown in the Garden of Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty. The "navel" reference comes from the shape of the plant's rosette, which resembles a human navel. This image, taken in a natural rocky setting, highlights the plant's affinity for growing in such environments. The Crassulaceae family, to which Umbilicus Chrysanthus belongs, is characterized by their succulent leaves, which help the plants store water in arid conditions. The photograph, taken in the early 20th century by Reginald Malby, showcases the historical significance of this plant in flora and horticulture. The Venus Navel was a popular ornamental plant in Victorian gardens, and its unique appearance continues to captivate gardeners and botanists alike. As you gaze upon this image, imagine the rich history and natural beauty of this remarkable plant, thriving in its rocky habitat. The Umbilicus Chrysanthus, with its golden-yellow blooms, is a testament to the wonders of the natural world and the enduring allure of the botanical realm.
