I’ve spent many enjoyable hours this week (including a few hours borrowed from sleeping time) perusing, scanning, and retouching images from my antique Dictionary of Gardening books to assemble a set of vintage botanical illustrations for my Etsy shop.
I scanned a few extra images to share with you today. They are, by their scientific names:
Fig. 94. Trichomanes Kraussii. 
Fig. 210. Flowering Branches of Podolepis Aristata. 
Fig. 244. Berberis Nepalensis. 
This is the set I curated this week (image is linked to my Etsy shop):
