About the Item

1897 Botanical Prints – Nierembergia, Salpiglossis, and Butterfly Flowers Description: This collection of three original 1897 botanical prints features Nierembergia frutescens, Salpiglossis sinuata, and butterfly flowers (Schizanthus pinnatus and Schizanthus retusus). Published in 'Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse', these plates reflect the elegance and precision of Victorian botanical illustration, capturing the charm of these ornamental blooms in exceptional detail. In more detail: 1. Nierembergia frutescens - Common names: cupflower, tall cupflower - Interesting fact: This delicate perennial produces dainty white or lavender flowers with yellow centers and is often used as a groundcover or in rock gardens for its compact, spreading habit. 2. Salpiglossis sinuata - Common names: painted tongue, velvet flower - Interesting fact: Known for its trumpet-shaped flowers with intricate veining in rich shades of purple, red, and yellow, it was a popular Victorian garden plant for borders and bedding. 3. Butterfly flowers (Schizanthus pinnatus and Schizanthus retusus) - Common names: poor man's orchid, fringe flower - Interesting fact: These striking flowers resemble tiny butterflies in flight and come in vibrant pink, red, and yellow hues, making them a favorite for cottage gardens and cut flower arrangements. These botanical prints beautifully showcase the charm and diversity of these ornamental plants, making them a timeless addition to any collection or decor. The *Nierembergia frutescens* print showcases its dainty white, cup-shaped flowers with bright yellow centers, delicately arranged among slender green stems. The *Salpiglossis sinuata*, also known as painted tongue, bursts with vivid red, yellow, and maroon trumpet-shaped blooms, meticulously rendered to highlight their velvety texture and intricate veining. The butterfly flowers plate features graceful stems adorned with pink, red, and yellow blooms that resemble fluttering butterflies, reflecting their delicate beauty. All three prints are in excellent condition, with vibrant colors and sharp details beautifully preserved for over a century. Ideal for framing and display, this set brings vintage botanical elegance to any home, gallery, or office. Perfect for antique print collectors, garden enthusiasts, or those who appreciate 19th-century botanical art, these works offer a timeless celebration of nature’s diversity and artistic charm.
