EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the intricacies of Haworthia minor, also known as Tulista minima or the Least Pearl Aloe. The plant belongs to the Asphodelaceae family and is native to South Africa. Discovered in the late 18th century, it was first illustrated and described by Sydenham Edwards and later engraved by F. Sansom for publication in The Botanical Magazine, London, in 1811. The Haworthia minor is a small succulent, growing up to 10 cm in height, with rosettes of fleshy, pearl-like leaves that are tipped with tiny, translucent teeth. These leaves are arranged in a rosette, with the edges rolled inward to protect against moisture loss. The inflorescence is a raceme, bearing bell-shaped, tubular flowers that are typically white or pink in color. The Least Pearl Aloe is a rare and highly sought-after specimen in the world of horticulture and botanical illustration. Its delicate beauty and unique characteristics have captivated plant enthusiasts for over two centuries. This engraving, with its meticulous attention to detail, serves as a testament to the artistry and dedication of the botanical illustrators and engravers of the time. The Haworthia minor is still cultivated today, and its popularity continues to grow among collectors and gardeners. This engraving offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the rich history and beauty of this remarkable plant.
