EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 80 from Ladies Flower Garden Perennials (1843) by Mrs. Jane Loudon showcases an enchanting autumnal scene filled with three distinctive plants: Mandragora autumnalis, Autumn Mandrake; Solanum tuberosum, the common potato; and Physalis viscosa, the sticky-leaved cape gooseberry. Mandragora autumnalis, also known as the Autumn Mandrake, is a rare and intriguing member of the Solanaceae family. With its elongated, tuberous roots and purplish-brown stems, this plant has long been associated with witchcraft and magic in folklore. Its bell-shaped, yellow-purple flowers bloom in late summer and autumn, adding a touch of allure to this Victorian-era illustration. Situated to the left of the Autumn Mandrake is Solanum tuberosom, the common potato. Its heart-shaped, yellow-green leaves and clusters of white, five-petaled flowers contrast beautifully with the deep purple hues of the Autumn Mandrake. The potato was a staple food source during the 19th century, making it a common sight in Victorian gardens. To the right of the Autumn Mandrake, Physalis viscosa, the sticky-leaved cape gooseberry, can be found. Its vibrant, yellow, lantern-shaped fruit is encased in a red, sticky calyx, which protects the fruit from insects. The plant's star-shaped, yellow flowers add an elegant touch to the arrangement. This illustration, created by Jane Wells Loudon in 1843, provides a glimpse into the Victorian fascination with gardening and the natural world. As an eudicot, angiosperm, and member of the Magnoliophyta division, these plants showcase the diverse beauty of the flowering plant kingdom during the 1807-1858 timeframe.
