1821réf. ABC_48479Amsterdam 1821. 8vo. J.C. Sepp & zoon Contemporary red sprinkled paper wrappers with a printed paper title-label on the spine. 2 L 521 1 blank pp. First edition of this extensive work on the cultivation and multiplication of plants and trees accompanied by an introduction which explains the basics of horticulture. The work discusses hundreds of plants in alphabetical order and gives important facts about their growth and development. All mentioned plants were considered suitable for Dutch gardens. The work was very accessible and easy to read for the general public. According to Van Eeden it was so popular that the publisher still received inquiries for it in the 1860s. However since the information in it was no longer up-to-date by this time the work was edited and re-published in 1868 as Hortus Batavus. The present work however is the first edition.With a red ownership stamp "Ex Libris J. Visser Rotterdam" on the front wrapper and the title-page the printed price of the work on the title-page has been corrected by hand. The edges and corners of the wrappers are frayed and the spine is damaged with loss of material at the head and foot. The work is occasionally very slightly foxed and the edges are lightly browned. Otherwise in good condition.l Cf. Eeden F. W. van Hortus Batavus introduction; Stafleu & Cowan 1626; not in Pritzel. unknown

First edition of the first notable horticultural work and nursery seed catalogue printed in the United States by this Irish-American nurseryman who corresponded and traded specimens with President Thomas Jefferson at Monticello as well as cultivated specimens collected during the Lewis & Clark expedition. McMahon before 1765-1816 immigrated from Ireland during political unrest and by 1802 had established his popular nurseries including greenhouses experimental gardens and hot houses near the Germantown Turnpike between Philadelphia and Nicetown. These contained useful and ornamental plants adapted to the American climate and in this detailed volume he outlines month-by-month the instructions for erecting and laying out the plants their cultivation and has incorporated as appendix detailed catalogues of 18 separate classes for available specimens. Eventually McMahon was able to cultivate and began selling a variety of plants collected from the Lewis & Clark Expedition including a fragrant currant Ribes odaritissimum and he also successfully cultivated Osage orange trees Maclura pomifera which were among the most celebrated specimens. The book became a classic work in the United States reprinted in 11 editions from 1806 to 1857 and urged American gardeners to incorporate indigenous species into their ornamental plantings.
