EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 8 from Le Regne Vegetal, Volume 12 of the Horticultural Atlas (1870), held in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, showcases an impressive array of edible bulbous plants. This botanical illustration, entitled "Plantes bulbeuses alimentaires" (Edible Bulbous Plants), offers a fascinating glimpse into the diverse world of bulbs that have long been an essential part of human nutrition. The illustration features a captivating assortment of bulbs from various plant families, including the Amaryllidaceae, represented by the vibrant red Amaryllis. The onion and garlic, members of the Allium family, are also prominently displayed. The Allium cepa, commonly known as the common onion, is depicted with its characteristic layers of concentric rings, while Allium sativum, or garlic, is shown with its distinctive cloves. This illustration provides a valuable record of the morphology and diversity of these important food sources. Bulbs are a type of storage organ found in monocotyledonous, or monocot, plants, which are flowering plants that belong to the Angiospermae, Magnoliophyta, or Angiosperms. The monocotyledonous plants are further classified within the order Asparagales, which includes the families Allium and Amaryllidaceae. The bulbs in this illustration serve as a testament to the rich botanical heritage and the important role that bulbous plants have played in providing sustenance for countless generations. The intricate details captured in the drawing offer a window into the complex structures of these fascinating organisms, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
