Large Rose-Tree (Hybrid China), at Mr. Buxton's Gardens, Wandsworth-Road, 1850. Creator: Unknown
Large Rose-Tree (Hybrid China), at Mr. Buxton's Gardens, Wandsworth-Road, [London], 1850. This gigantic plant...growing in the nursery-ground of Mr. Buxton, in the Wandsworth-road, is what is termed a standard rose, of the Fulgian species, variety Hybrid China. This tree, unlike other descriptions of the same plant, improves in size and growth with age; and although 28 ft. in height, and 20 ft. in circumference, and bearing 2000 roses in bloom, it is not so large as it appeared in 1848; the proprietor having cut the branches to prevent their encroaching upon the garden-walk'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases the Large Rose-Tree (Hybrid China) at Mr. Buxton's Gardens, located on Wandsworth-Road in London, during the 19th century. The Large Rose-Tree, a standard rose of the Fulgian species, variety Hybrid China, is a true marvel of horticulture. Unlike other specimens of the same plant, this tree continues to grow in size and circumference with age. In this image, the tree stands tall at 28 feet in height and 20 feet in circumference, adorned with an impressive 2000 roses in full bloom. Remarkably, this magnificent tree was not as large as it appeared in 1848, as its proprietor, Mr. Buxton, had taken the necessary steps to prune the branches to prevent them from encroaching upon the garden walk. The intricate details of the tree's gnarled trunk and the delicate petals of its roses are beautifully captured in this engraving, published in the Illustrated London News in 1850. This photograph print offers a glimpse into the Victorian era's fascination with nature and the art of gardening, showcasing the dedication and care taken to cultivate such extraordinary plants.
