Lindens Tropaeolum, Tropaeolum lindenii: A Vibrant and Exotic Botanical Marvel This stunning chromolithograph depicts Lindens Tropaeolum, also known as Tropaeolum lindenii or the Nasturtium vine of Linden, a captivating tropical plant that has graced botanical illustrations for over a century. Drawn and chromolithographed by the renowned Belgian botanical illustrator, P. de Pannemaeker, for Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole, published in Brussels in 1894, this image showcases the plant's alluring foliage and intricate flowers in exquisite detail. The Linden Tropaeolum is a trailing or climbing vine, native to South America, with distinctive heart-shaped leaves that are covered in fine hairs and adorned with a unique, velvety texture. Its vibrant, tubular flowers bloom in various shades of orange, red, and yellow, with a distinctive black spot at their base. These flowers are not only visually captivating but also attract a variety of pollinators, contributing to the plant's reproductive success. The intricate process of chromolithography, which involves the transfer of an image from a drawing to a series of lithographic stones, each coated with a different color, is evident in the rich, vibrant hues and smooth transitions between colors in this illustration. The result is a breathtaking representation of the Linden Tropaeolum, which continues to captivate botanists, horticulturists, and plant enthusiasts alike with its exotic beauty and fascinating botanical attributes.
