Hortus floridus is a 1614 flower book printed at Arnhem by Johannes Janssonius, made by the Passe family of engravers for botanical and garden-minded readers. Its copperplate pages pair sharply drawn blooms and fruiting branches, each labelled with a numbered key, which suggests a model for botanical line plates, plant identification layouts, or seasonal floral motifs.
