EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning illustration is a beautiful representation of the Prunus sp. peach variety, Grimwoods Royal George or Grosse Mignon, as depicted in Plate 41 from Pomona Londinensis (1818) by the renowned botanist William Hooker. Held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, this illustration offers a captivating glimpse into the botanical world of the 19th century. The Peach tree, a member of the Rosaceae family, is an angiosperm, or flowering plant, that belongs to the Eudicot clade, specifically the Rosids. More specifically, it is a part of the subclass Eudicotyledons, order Sapindales, family Fabaceae, subfamily Faboideae, and tribe Amygdaleae or Amygdaloideae. The peach tree is a deciduous tree that bears juicy and succulent fruits, which are rich in vitamins and minerals. The Peach, scientifically known as Prunus persica, has been cultivated for thousands of years in various regions of the world, including China, Persia, and Europe. The illustration showcases the exquisite details of the peach tree, from its delicate flowers to its luscious fruit. The Grimwoods Royal George or Grosse Mignon variety is particularly noteworthy for its large, fleshy, and sweet fruits. This illustration is a testament to the meticulous work of William Hooker and the scientific community during the 19th century. It provides a valuable record of the botanical knowledge of the time and serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting and preserving the natural world for future generations.
