EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 29 from Pomona Londinensis, an exquisite illustration of a Vermash Nectarine (Prunus sp.) by the renowned botanist and explorer, William Hooker. This beautiful nineteenth century print, held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, showcases the luscious and juicy nectarine, a variety of the common peach, Prunus persica. The Vermash Nectarine, with its delicate pink blush and luscious, succulent fruit, is a testament to the botanical artistry of the time. The Pomona Londinensis, published between 1779 and 1832, is a seminal work in the field of botany, featuring over 1,000 meticulously detailed illustrations of edible fruits and nuts. Hooker, a leading figure in the field of botany, was the superintendent of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew from 1841 to 1865, and this plate is a prime example of his exceptional botanical skills. The Vermash Nectarine is a member of the Rosaceae family, a large group of woody plants that includes roses, apples, pears, and cherries. It is an angiosperm, a type of flowering plant that produces seeds enclosed in an ovary. The nectarine is a eudicot, a subgroup of dicotyledons, which have two seed leaves when they first emerge from the ground. The Rosales order, to which the nectarine belongs, is characterized by its simple, opposite leaves and its pistillate and staminate flowers on separate plants. The Vermash Nectarine is a delightful addition to the Rosid clade, a large group of flowering plants that includes the Rosaceae, and is a member of the subfamily Amygdaleae, which also includes almonds and peaches. This beautiful illustration is a reminder of the rich botanical heritage of the past, and a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
