Yellow wildflower common avens Victorian botanical illustration by Anne Pratt
Yellow wildflower common avens, Geum urbanum. The botanical name, Geum, originated from the Greek geno, to yield an agreeable fragrance, because, when freshly dug up, the root has a clove-like aroma. Avens had many names in the fourteenth century, and was called the Blessed Herb (Herba benedicta), from which a common name became Herb Bennet. Anne Pratt (1806 - 1893) was a self-taught botanical and ornithological illustrator and author from Strood, Kent. This print is from the book " Wild Flowers", printed in 1893 by SPCK (the Society for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge)
