The botanist's repository for new and rare plants; vol. 05 [of 10]

"The Botanist's Repository for New and Rare Plants; Vol. 05 [of 10]" by Henry Cranke Andrews, is an early 19th-century scientific record, presenting colorful illustrations and thorough botanical descriptions of unusual and recently discovered plants. Using the Linnæan system, the book systematically organizes these exotic plants, many originating from the Cape of Good Hope, noting their distinct features and offering guidance for growing them. Through detailed entries, including information on ideal growing conditions, flowering times, and propagation methods, the book also serves as a practical handbook for both botanists and gardeners.
