Artist: Charles Williams. After: George Moutard Woodward. Published: S. W. Fores. The gardeners, George III and Napoleon (right), stand on opposite sides of a stream, 'The Channel', in which floats a (sailor's) cudgel inscribed 'British Oak'. Each has a plant growing in a tub hooped with gold: Napoleon's is a drooping weed on which dangles a small imperial crown. Behind him are serried rows of 'Military Poppies' in pots; beside him (right) is a wheelbarrow filled with coins, in which he has stuck his sabre; this is 'Manure from Italy & Switzerland'. Napoleon, in military dress with apron and over-sleeves, bends over his plant, holding up the crown; he says: "Why I dont know what is the reason - my Poppies flourish charmingly - but this Corona Imperialis is rather a delicate kind of plant, and requires great judgement in rearing." George III, plainly dressed and wearing an apron, holds a spade, and points to a sturdy oak-plant growing in his tub, whose summit is a British royal crown. He says: "No - No - Brother Gardener - though only a ditch parts our grounds - yet this is the spot for true Gardening, - here, the Corona Britanica, and Heart of Oak, will flourish to the end of the World."
