Weaves together history, art and material culture
Showcases Oxford's unique collections and expertise
Richly illustrated
Features works rarely explored in the public domain and usually only discussed in specialist literature
Stretches over the present time by integrating a selection of contemporary works of art that respond to the issues raised by the historic evidence
Accompanies a major exhibition to be held at the Ashmolean from March to the end of August 2026
Flowers and plants are a staple of British life. Nearly 40% of our population considers themselves to be gardeners, making this and associated activities a national pursuit. And yet, while we hold endless discussions over how to seed, grow, and disseminate our cherished plants, we still known relatively little about how they were collected, exchanged, circulated, identified, and modified, and how much art has shaped our understanding and appreciation of them. This publication, designed to accompany the homonymous exhibition at the Ashmolean Museum, explores some of these plant stories through highlights from Oxford's collections. Bringing together historical and scientific expertise, art and material culture, traditional and contemporary artworks, this book ultimately reflects on the long-lasting impact of flora on our society – and of us on it.
