When Jane C. Webb Loudon became interested in botany in the 1830s, gardening manuals were highly technical and intended for people already in the field.
The British writer, who had already penned a science fiction novel as a teenager, wanted to change that.
Loudon worked to write books that made horticulture and gardening understandable and accessible—something women could pursue as a hobby. She was also a self-taught artist and became a respected botanical illustrator.
People bought thousands of copies of her books, which included “The ladies' flower-garden of ornamental annuals” (where this illustration is from in our @silibraries) and the four-volume “The Ladies' Flower-Garden.” #WomensHistoryMonth
