EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration is taken from Pomona Franconica, a horticultural encyclopedia published between 1776 and 1801 by Johann Mayer of Wurzburg, Germany. Entitled "Grosse Guigne noire luisant," or "Large Blackheart Cherry," this illustration showcases the beauty of the Prunus sp. (Cherry) species, specifically the large blackheart variety. The illustration captures the intricate details of the plant's flowers, leaves, and fruit. The Prunus genus, commonly known as cherries, is a part of the Rosaceae family, which is an order of flowering plants that also includes roses, apples, and pears. This particular species is a eudicot, meaning it is a type of flowering plant that has two embryonic seed leaves, or cotyledons. The Prunus sp. is further classified as an angiosperm, a type of plant that produces seeds enclosed in an ovary, and a dicot, meaning it has two seed leaves or cotyledons. The Large Blackheart Cherry is a member of the Rosales order, which includes rose-like plants, and the subfamily Amygdaleae, or almond family. The fruit of the Prunus sp. is an amygdala, a type of drupe, which is a fruit with a fleshy outer layer and a hard inner layer that contains the seed. The illustration depicts the plant in all its splendor, with its large, glossy, black fruit contrasting against the bright green leaves and delicate white flowers. The flowers are shown in various stages of bloom, from bud to fully open, providing a glimpse into the plant's life cycle. The attention to detail in this illustration is truly remarkable, making it a valuable addition to any botanical collection or study of the Prunus sp. and the natural world.
