Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating chronicle of the pioneering work of the Veitch family, who for over three-quarters of a century transformed the face of horticulture in England. The author, with the help of family members, former employees, and prominent botanists, provides an intimate look… at the lives and achievements of the Veitch family. You'll learn about the family's origins as nurserymen, their early forays into plant collecting in the 1830s and 1840s, and the dramatic expansion of their business in the mid-19th century, led by the charismatic James Veitch junior. The book takes us on a thrilling journey through exotic locales, tracing the footsteps of the Veitch collectors ââ â William Lobb, Thomas Lobb, and Richard Pearce ââ â as they sought out new and rare plants in South America, Java, Malaya, and California. Their daring expeditions brought back to England a wealth of plants, many of which are now commonplace in gardens around the world, including the dramatic Wellingtonia gigantea, the vibrant Lapageria rosea, and the enchanting Lilium auratum. We also meet the remarkable hybridists employed by the Veitch family ââ â John Dominy, John Seden, and John Heal ââ â who dedicated their lives to creating even more dazzling varieties of popular garden plants. Through their dedication and the expertise of the Veitch family, this book unveils a fascinating history of plant exploration and its impact on the development of our gardens. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Hortus Veitchii begins with a biographical introduction to the Veitch family and their interests.

The book then focusses on the vast number of plants these men brought back and worked on; not just by listing them, but through an enticing mixture of detailed background text and photographs.

In this copy, part X, General Review of the Orchideae is bound first in volume I Originally published in 10 parts, usually bound in 2 volumes, in 1887-1894, it is a milestone and a famous and still useful reference in orchid literature, with descriptions and culture of about 1,700 species and hybrids, together with the history of their discovery and collection, about 1300 pages. Besides the detailed descriptions, the work includes details on the discovery and development of the various species and varieties. Veitch was a leading English nursery, which sent plant hunters to many parts of the world, and introduced numerous new varieties and species. BMNH 2199. Massachusetts Horticultural Library Catalogue 323. Burrage p. 90. Glikbarg (supplement 1982). "Many of the instructions contained in the Manual relative to the care of different orchids are still valuable. Good scientific descriptions in English are given for each species; these descriptions are accompanied by the appropriate references to earlier authorities together with detailed information on habitat, discovery and culture. A substantial amount of interesting detail concerning contemporary and past orchid hunters, collectors and growers is given, much of which would be difficult to find elsewhere. The numerous maps indicating the habitat of various species are valuable and the work is enriched by many well-drawn black and white engraved plates and illustrations in the text. . . a veritable encyclopedia. . . the 1963 reprint has maps that can be read only with difficulty". [Duveen, Classics of Orchid Literature, American Orchid Society, 1972]. A picture of this book is available on request.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. Large 8vo. pp 542. 20 by 29 by 7 cms. Top edge gilt, others uncut .Limited edition for private circulation only, appears to be a LARGE PAPER copy, 50 plates, Highly attractive mainly sepia botanical photos with tissue guards, occasional very slight unobjectioble foxing.…Loosely inserted is a compliment slip printed gilt 'Messrs Veich's .very respectful compliments' and in faded red ink it seems to read Jonathan Symons April 1906. The Arpad Pleasch copy with his small gilt lettered red leather book label at front pastedown reading 'Ex Libris Arpad Plesch' with sun motif + his sun stamp at prelims. çrpd Plesch (1889Ð1974) was a Hungarian financier, banker, and lawyer. He owned a celebrated collection of rare botanical books for his foundation Stifung der Botanik he also collected esoteric pornography. Verso of title page reads: 'This special edition has been printed for Private Circulation only.' The frontis is an old print of 'the original nursery at Chelsea.' From Goodreads: 'The following pages contain a record of continuous work for over three-quarters of a century in the field of Horticulture by one family, - work which justly may be claimed to have permanently benefited every garden. The good fortune to usually find the right assistants for both home and foreign service, and the signal loyalty and capability of those selected, largely contributed to success, and the names of several are well known to all with any knowledge of plants. To the representatives seeking unknown plants at one period or another in almost every clime, fortune has not invariably been kind, but the work of such men as Thomas Lobb, William Lobb, the late John Gould Veitch, Charles Maries and E. H. Wilson, has been a gain in every way; Whilst the efforts in hybridizing and selecting of John Dominy, John Seden, and John Heal, have given a wider interest to all cultivators.' Half dark brown/ maroon leather marbled boards lettered gilt at the spine . Likely to be the original binding fro Veitch.Slight fading at spine, a little scuffing at spine, occasional very slight foxing (mostly to tissue guards). Sound clean very good.
