EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the enchanting beauty of Cashmere Phlomis, Phlomis cashmeriana, also known as Kashmir Sage or Cashmere Phlomis. The botanical illustration, created by G. Barclay after a drawing by Miss Sarah Drake, is taken from John Lindley and Robert Sweet's Ornamental Flower Garden and Shrubbery, published by G. Willis in London in 1854. The Cashmere Phlomis is a rare and striking perennial plant native to the mountainous regions of Kashmir and the Himalayas. This illustration captures the plant in all its glory, with its velvety, cashmere-like foliage and vibrant, two-tone yellow and orange flowers. The intricate details of the plant's veins, petals, and stamen are expertly rendered in the engraving, making it a true masterpiece of botanical illustration. The Cashmere Phlomis was a popular addition to Victorian gardens due to its unique appearance and hardiness. It continues to be a beloved plant among gardeners and horticulturists today for its ability to thrive in various climates and soil types. The plant's attractive foliage and fragrant flowers make it an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, or containers. This beautiful illustration not only serves as a testament to the artistic skill of the engraver and the botanical expertise of Miss Sarah Drake, but also highlights the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the Cashmere Phlomis are a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the plant kingdom and the importance of continuing to study and appreciate it.
