EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 26 from Ladies Flower Garden Annuals (1843) by Jane Wells Loudon showcases a stunning arrangement of five different flowering plants, with the Maltese cross (Lychnis chalcedonica) taking center stage. This exquisite botanical illustration offers a glimpse into the Victorian era's fascination with the natural world and the beauty of flowering plants. The Maltese cross, also known as Lychnis chalcedonica, is a herbaceous perennial that belongs to the Caryophyllaceae family, order Caryophyllales, and class Magnoliophyta. It is an angiosperm, a type of seed-producing flowering plant, and a dicot, meaning it has two seed leaves. The plant is native to the Mediterranean region and is characterized by its distinctive red, five-petaled flowers, which resemble a Maltese cross. Surrounding the Maltese cross are four other flowering plants. The Coronata, with its delicate pink blooms, is likely a variety of Gypsophila, a genus of flowering plants in the Caryophyllaceae family. The Fulgens, with its vibrant yellow flowers, is most likely a type of Agrostemma, a genus of herbaceous plants in the same family. The Saponaria, with its bell-shaped blue flowers, is a member of the Caryophyllaceae family, and the Gypsophylla, with its small, white flowers, is likely a variety of the same name, also known as baby's breath. This botanical illustration, created in the 19th century by Jane Wells Loudon, offers a captivating glimpse into the beauty and diversity of the flowering plant world during a time when botany was a popular pastime and hobby for many. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the illustration serve as a testament to the dedication and skill of the botanical artists of the time and the enduring allure of the natural world.
