Saffron Crocus Botanical Illustration Postcard

This postcard reproduces a botanical plate of the saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), shown with its purple petals, thread-like leaves, bulb, and root system intact. Two smaller studies at the side detail the flower's structure. The red stigmas visible at the flower's centre are the very threads harvested to make saffron spice.
