EDITORS COMMENTS
Begonia hybrid 'Madame Joseph Eliat' is a stunning example of the captivating beauty and diversity of the tuberous begonia family. This exquisite plant was first introduced to the horticultural world in the late 19th century, as depicted in this beautiful chromolithograph by Pieter de Pannemaeker, based on an illustration by A. Goossens from Jean Linden's Illustration Horticole, published in Brussels in 1895. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the print bring to life the lush, tropical allure of this exotic flower. Madame Joseph Eliat is a hybrid begonia, bred for its large, velvety, and ruffled petals that come in shades of pink, white, and red. The plant's lush foliage adds to its charm, with heart-shaped leaves that are often tinged with red or pink. This begonia is a popular choice for gardeners and plant enthusiasts who appreciate the elegance and sophistication of tropical plants. The chromolithograph technique used to create this print was a popular method for producing high-quality botanical illustrations during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The process involved using multiple lithographic stones, each with a separate color layer, to create a rich and detailed image. The result is a stunning and accurate representation of the Madame Joseph Eliat begonia, which continues to captivate and inspire gardeners and artists to this day.
