"Forget-me-nots and Buttercups plate 13 from The Ladies Flower Garden" is an illustration by Jane Loudon, featured in her influential horticultural work "The Ladies Flower Garden of Ornamental Annuals," first published in 1840. Jane Wells Loudon (1807–1858) was an English author and early pioneer in popularizing gardening and botanical literature among the Victorian middle class, particularly aimed at women. Her work was notable for combining practical advice on gardening with accessible descriptions and vivid illustrations of various plant species.

The "Forget-me-nots and Buttercups" illustration, as plate 13 in the series, depicts the two eponymous flower species, which were well-loved in Victorian England for their delicate beauty and the romantic symbolism often associated with them. Forget-me-nots, with their small, blue flowers, were emblematic of remembrance and faithful love, while buttercups, known for their bright yellow blossoms, were often linked to cheerfulness and childhood.

Loudon's "The Ladies Flower Garden" series consisted of several volumes, each filled with hand-colored lithographic plates that were both scientifically accurate and artistically appealing. These works were not only educational, teaching women about botany and the care of plants, but also served as a reflection of the Victorian era's fascination with nature and the language of flowers.

The "Forget-me-nots and Buttercups" plate, like others in the volume, would have been used as a reference for garden planning as well as for the enjoyment of those who appreciated the beauty of flowers but might not have had the means or space to cultivate extensive gardens of their own. Loudon's contribution to botanical literature and her role in empowering women to engage in gardening and botany are part of her lasting legacy in the field.
