EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration is a captivating representation of Gardenia rothmannia, also known as candlewood, as depicted in Franz Andreas Bauer's Delineation of Exotic Plants Cultivated in the Royal Garden at Kew, published in 1796. The illustration showcases the plant's long, elegant stems adorned with glossy, green leaves, and clusters of fragrant, white flowers. Gardenia rothmannia is a member of the Rubiaceae family, which is one of the largest families of flowering plants, and is classified as an angiosperm, dicot, eudicot, and asterid. It belongs to the Gentianales order, which also includes the coffee plant and the gentian. The illustration provides a glimpse into the 18th century fascination with exotic plants, as the Royal Garden at Kew was a hub for collecting and studying plants from around the world. Bauer, a skilled botanical artist, meticulously captured the intricate details of this beautiful plant, which was likely brought back to Europe from its native South America. The Gardenia rothmannia is also known as candlewood due to its use in making candles. The plant's stems contain a waxy substance that can be melted and used to create candles. However, the plant's primary value lies in its stunning flowers, which are highly prized for their fragrance and beauty. This illustration is a testament to the rich history of botanical exploration and the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world. It is held in the Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London and is a valuable resource for botanical research and education.
