EDITORS COMMENTS
This handfinished chromolithograph by Henry Noel Humphreys, based on an illustration by Jane Loudon from her book "Mrs. Jane Loudon's Ladies Flower Garden of Ornamental Perennials," published in London in 1849, showcases an enchanting array of rock-loving plants. The scene features a vibrant and diverse collection of species, including the Globe-podded Vesicaria (Vesicaria utriculata), also known as the Rocket Vesicaria, with its distinctive spherical pods. Adorning the foreground is the Yellow Rocket (Barbaria vulgaris), its bright yellow flowers adding a cheerful contrast to the surrounding greenery. The Rock Alyssum (Aurinia saxatilis) and Mountain Alyssum (Alyssum montanum) display their delicate pink and purple blooms, respectively, while the Five-leaved Toothwort (Dentaria pentaphylla) adds a touch of elegance with its white, nodding flowers. The Rose-coloured Wallcress (Arabis rosea) and Alpine Wallcress (Arabis alpina) showcase their charming rosy hues, providing a beautiful backdrop for the Spreading Aubrietia (Aubrietia deltoidea) and Long-styled Hutchinsia (Hutchinsia stylosa), with their intricate, elongated flowers. This illustration invites us to explore the wonders of the natural world and the beauty that can be found in even the most seemingly ordinary landscapes. Each of these plants, with their unique characteristics and allure, adds to the rich tapestry of biodiversity, making this a truly enchanting composition.
