EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite chromolithograph depicts the extinct Red Angels Trumpet, Brugmansia sanguinea, also known as Palito Amargo or Desert Datura. The vibrant red flowers of this plant were once a beloved addition to Victorian gardens and greenhouses, as showcased in Desire Bois' illustration for Edward Step's Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse, published by Frederick Warne in London in 1896. The Red Angels Trumpet was a striking plant, with its tubular, scalloped, and velvet-textured flowers that bore a distinctive tongue-like extension. Brugmansia sanguinea was a member of the Solanaceae family, which also includes the Deadly Nightshade and Belladonna. The plant's toxicity was well-known, and it was used traditionally in South America for medicinal and religious purposes. Despite its allure, the Red Angels Trumpet is now considered extinct in the wild. The exact cause of its disappearance is unknown, but habitat loss, over-collection for horticultural purposes, and competition with invasive species are believed to be contributing factors. The loss of this beautiful and historically significant plant is a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts and the need to protect the world's natural wonders. This illustration, with its intricate details and rich colors, provides a glimpse into a bygone era of botanical exploration and appreciation. The Red Angels Trumpet may no longer be with us, but its legacy lives on through the preservation of records like this one.
