Ca. 1845-1888. Hand-colored lithograph. 13 ¼" x 9.5". FLORE DES SERRES... was a lavish Belgian periodical devoted to botany. It was primarily the brainchild of nurseryman Louis Van Houtte, and it ceased when he died in 1888. This beautiful and vividly-colored plate from one of the issues depicts Sarracenia Flava, the carniverous yellow pitcher plant.
