List of subscribers, half-titles to volume 1 and 3 only (as usual). 295 hand-colored lithographed plates by Gauci from drawings by Vishnupersaud, Gorachaud and others (plates 222/223 constitute one folding plate), one double-page engraved map (some minor spotting to tissue guards). Contemporary quarter green morocco gilt (rubbed). First edition, one of only 294 copies published, an unusually bright and attractive copy. Wallich, Roxborough's successor as superintendent of the East India Company's botanic garden at Calcutta: "head of the noblest botanical garden in the world, supplied with a large staff of collectors and artists, and with provision for travelling expenses on a liberal scale, . applied himself with indomitable zeal and industry to the extension of the garden, the investigation of the East India Company's vast and rapidly increasing dominion, and the establishment of a correspondence and exchange of living and dead plants upon a scale which for magnitude and efficiency has never been surpassed." (Obituary in "Proceedings of Royal Society of London" 1856). He travelled extensively in Penang, Singapore, and Burma. As a result his "Plantae Asiaticae rariores" was the first to bring images of the exotic flora of the Indian subcontinent to the attention of curious Europeans, particularly the British, for whom India was an increasingly important part of their Empire. At the Calcutta garden Wallich trained native artists to make botanical drawings, and one of them, Vishnu Prasad or Vishnupersaud, accompanied him on several journeys. Nearly all of the illustrations in the "Plantae Asiaticae rariores" are the work of these Indian draughtsmen, and are so vivid and vigorous that they make most other plant drawings look insipid by comparison" (Coats, "The Book of Flowers", 109). Dunthorne 326; Nissen 2156; Sitwell "Great Flower Books", p.151; Pritzel 10276; Stafleu TL2 176.52; Plesch, pp.459-460.

Nugent is delighted to learn of Wallich's 'appointment to the Superintendence of the Botanical Gardens at Calcutta', and is pleased that the post has made Wallich independent: 'I give myself Credit for having confirmed you in the Situation, for it was highly favorable to the Company's Interests & I believe the Directors are sensible of it [.] What a Pleasure it must be to you to see alll your children provided for in such honorable Employment - It is a just Reward for all your Labours, & you are fortunate in having adopted England as your Country, where you can attend to their Interests'. He thanks him for sending a newspaper, 'which reminds me of old Times, though I have no longer any Tie in India'. He ends by offering to return any of the documents Wallich has sent him.
