EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving depicts the Woolly Net-bush, Calothamnus villosus, also known as the Silky Net-bush. The intricate details of the plant's foliage and flowers are beautifully rendered in this artistic representation, created by George Cooke after George Loddiges in 1817. The Woolly Net-bush is a native plant of Australia, specifically found in the eastern parts of New South Wales and Victoria. It is characterized by its dense, silky-haired foliage, which gives it a soft and textured appearance. The plant produces small, tubular, pink to red flowers in clusters, which bloom from late autumn to early winter. The Woolly Net-bush is an important food source for various insects and birds, making it a valuable component of the Australian ecosystem. This illustration is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and appreciating the unique flora that exists in various parts of the globe.
