"Saccharum officinarum, commonly known as sugarcane, is a versatile and valuable tropical plant. This chromolithograph from 1891 showcases various useful tropical plants, including the black sugar cane cultivated for its sucrose-rich stem. The process of obtaining sugar from this noble cane involves crushing it to extract the sweet sucrose. Handcoloured stipple copperplate engravings by Lambert Junior and Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin beautifully depict the stalks and leaves in Chaumeton, Poiret, and Chamberets' "La Flore Medicale. " With its pink perennial variety also captured in an illustration, this caption highlights the significance as an economic plant with immense potential. "
