EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of Penstemon roseus, also known as the Rose-coloured Penstemon or Rose Chelone. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by Edward Dalton Smith and beautifully rendered in engraving by Weddell for Robert Sweet's "The British Flower Garden," published in Ridgeway, London, in 1827. Penstemon roseus is a herbaceous perennial native to North America, specifically in the eastern and central United States. It is characterized by its tall spikes of rose-colored, two-lipped tubular flowers that bloom from late spring to early summer. The plant grows to a height of around 30-60 centimeters and prefers well-drained soil and full sun. The Penstemon roseus was a popular addition to Victorian gardens due to its attractive flowers and ease of cultivation. The engraving captures the delicate details of the plant's foliage, flowers, and stems, providing a stunning representation of this beloved garden favorite. Botanical illustrations like this one were an essential tool for botanists and horticulturists during the 19th century. They allowed for accurate identification and documentation of plant species, facilitating the exchange of knowledge and the development of new gardens and hybrids. This particular engraving is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, making it an invaluable resource for both historical and horticultural studies.
