About the Item

Title: 1897 Botanical Prints – Love-Lies-Bleeding, Variegated Amaranth, and Cockscomb This collection of three original botanical prints from 1897 features *love-lies-bleeding* (Amarantus caudatus), *variegated amaranth* (Amarantus tricolor), and *cockscomb* (Celosia cristata). These prints, published in *Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse*, capture the rich textures and striking forms of these ornamental plants with extraordinary detail and vibrant color. The plants Love-Lies-Bleeding, Variegated Amaranth, and Cockscomb have additional names or alternative names, often based on their appearance or regional usage: 1. Love-Lies-Bleeding (Amaranthus caudatus) - Common names: tassel flower, velvet flower, foxtail amaranth, pendant amaranth - Interesting fact: It is native to South America and has been grown as an ornamental plant for centuries. In Victorian flower language, it symbolizes enduring love or hopelessness. 2. Variegated Amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor) - Common names: Joseph's coat, summer poinsettia, fountain plant - Interesting fact: Known for its striking, multi-colored foliage, it is a popular ornamental plant in gardens and is also used in culinary dishes in some cultures. 3. Cockscomb (Celosia cristata) - Common names: brain celosia, woolflower, velvet flower, crested celosia - Interesting fact: The name refers to its crested, brain-like flower shape, which resembles a rooster's comb. It is widely used in tropical gardens and floral arrangements due to its vivid colors. These alternative names highlight the plants' visual appeal, cultural connections, and historical uses. The love-lies-bleeding print showcases its cascading crimson flowers, hanging like velvet ropes, paired with broad green leaves, reflecting its dramatic presence in gardens. The variegated amaranth highlights its vivid multicolored foliage, with red, green, and gold hues blending beautifully across its striking leaves. The cockscomb print features the iconic velvety, fan-shaped crimson blooms that resemble a rooster’s comb, complemented by lush green foliage and detailed botanical elements such as seeds and buds. Each print is preserved in excellent condition, with bright colors and precise details intact after more than a century. These works are ideal for framing and will enhance any space with their timeless botanical beauty. Perfect for antique print collectors, garden enthusiasts, or lovers of historical decor, this set celebrates the artistry and scientific accuracy of Victorian botanical illustration, showcasing nature’s vivid and ornate designs.
