Lowe’s Ferns: British and Exotic
Edward Lowe (1825–1900) played a significant role in the popularization and cultivation of ferns during the Victorian era. While he was not directly involved in exploration expeditions like some other botanists, Lowe’s contributions to fern study were influential in bringing ferns to the forefront of Victorian horticulture and botanical interest.
Exploration through Horticulture and Gardening
Lowe was instrumental in introducing ferns to the world of horticulture and gardening. Horticulture is the science and art of growing and cultivating plants. Lowe recognized the ornamental value of ferns and cultivated a wide variety of species, both native and exotic, in his own garden.
Lowe experimented with fern cultivation techniques and developed methods for propagating ferns. Methods included spore germination and vegetative propagation. He wrote extensively on fern cultivation and published several books and articles on the subject.
