Beautiful leaved plants : being a description of the most beautiful leaved plants in cultivation in this country, to which is added an extended catalogue / by E.J. Lowe ; assisted by W. Howard ; with sixty coloured illustrations.
A Victorian horticultural handbook by Edward Joseph Lowe and W. Howard, published by Bell and Daldy in London in 1872, cataloguing ornamental foliage plants grown in British greenhouses and gardens for gardeners and collectors. Colour-printed plates isolate single leaves and small plants against pale grounds, showing blotched, banded, and variegated markings in green, yellow, and cream, with line-engraved habit sketches beside them; useful for leaf silhouettes, pattern motifs, and botanical linework.
