Species: Viola x wittrockiana 'Delta True Blue' | Family: Violaceae | Location: Grounds of NYBG. Pansy is derived from the French word pensee, meaning 'though', as the large flowers often blend forward to resemble a person with a lowered head, deep in thought. The flower is often used as a symbol of recollection and remberance.

This print depicts a specimen from NYBG's William and Lynda Steere Herbarium, collected by N. H. Holmgren. Print measures 13"x19".

Containing more than 7.8 million preserved specimens, the William and Lynda Steere Herbarium is the largest herbarium in the Western Hemisphere and a priceless resource for scholars from around the world.
