EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 929 from the John Reeves Collection of Botanical Drawings, housed in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, presents an exquisite illustration of Psidium, commonly known as guava. This nineteenth century drawing, created during the height of the botanical exploration era, showcases the intricacies of this Myrtaceae plant in stunning detail. The illustration captures a branch laden with yellow, round fruits, each encased in a rough, textured rind. The leaves, arranged oppositely on the stem, are simple in shape with a smooth, glossy surface and a subtle serrated edge. The small, white flowers, clustered at the branch ends, are depicted in various stages of development, adding to the overall beauty and complexity of the composition. Psidium, a flowering plant belonging to the Angiospermae, Magnoliophyta, Eudicot, Rosid, and Malvidae orders, is an important member of the Myrtales family. Its common name, guava, is derived from the Taino word 'guabva,' meaning 'sweet fruit.' This tropical plant is native to Central America and northern South America, and is now widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. John Reeves, a British botanical artist, created this illustration during the 19th century as part of his extensive collection of botanical drawings from Canton, China. Reeves' meticulous attention to detail and exceptional artistic skill are evident in this representation of Psidium, which continues to captivate viewers and inspire botanical enthusiasts to this day.
