About this book
Paradisi in Sole Paradisus Terrestris presents a garden of pleasant flowers that the subtitle says the English air will permit to be grown. The account of Valerians describes plants admitted to gardens for their beauty and records summer flowering followed quickly by seed. The description distinguishes pale blue flowers from pure white ones, while explicitly treating a report of red flowers as unconfirmed by personal observation.
The double blush Fritillaria receives a description of its round, flattened white root, green leaves and pale whitish purple spotted flower. The double blush Fritillaria flower is said to remain constant in form, with at least ten petals and most usually twelve.
