Starting in 1825, Maund produced The Botanic Garden from his press at Bromsgrove in Worcestershire. The 13 volumes of this periodical depicted with great delicacy ornamental flowering plants cultivated in the Royal Gardens and was dedicated to the young Queen Victoria. Eminent botanical artists such as Augusta Innes Withers, Edwin D. Smith, Mrs. Edward Bury and Maund's own daughter contributed to the work. The work was published by Baldwin, Cradock & Joy of London.[2] A special 'Crown Edition' of the work was also published in which each page depicted a single species rather than four to a page as in the first edition. Each page had a decorative border topped by a crown. Issued as a supplement to The Botanic Garden were 70 numbered prints under the title of The Fruitist. Each of these was a hand-coloured engraving and description of a particular fruit.[3][4] {{quote|"A delightful work, not only full of useful and practical information, but illustrated with most charming plates carefully engraved and coloured"|Dunthorne, Great Flower Books}}Maund and the Rev. John Stevens Henslow collaborated in 1837 to produce The Botanist, a botanical journal the goal of which was to educate gardeners. Five volumes of lavish hand-coloured illustrations were issued, Augusta Innes Withers once more being the most important botanical artist to contribute. The plates were engraved by S Watts, Nevitt & Smith.[5] {{Botanist|Maund|Maund|border=0}}{{commons category|Benjamin Maund}}References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://adbonline.anu.edu.au/biogs/A050262b.htm |title=Maund, John (1823 - 1858) Biographical Entry - Australian Dictionary of Biography Online |publisher=Adbonline.anu.edu.au |date= |accessdate=2009-06-10}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.russellrareprints.com/product_info.php?products_id=91&osCsid=22d85c4d7a964146e340a5b8055930e1 |title=Russell Rare Prints |publisher=Russell Rare Prints |date= |accessdate=2009-06-10 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110715214540/http://www.russellrareprints.com/product_info.php?products_id=91&osCsid=22d85c4d7a964146e340a5b8055930e1 |archivedate=2011-07-15 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://siris-libraries.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?uri=full=3100001~!277796!0 |title=The Fruitist : a treatise on orchard and garden fruits, their description, history, and management |publisher=Siris-libraries.si.edu |date= |accessdate=2009-06-10}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.antiquemapsandprints.com/SCANS/SCANS122.htm |title=Scans Of Recent Additions |publisher=Antique Maps And Prints |date= |accessdate=2009-06-10 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090519052359/http://www.antiquemapsandprints.com/SCANS/SCANS122.htm |archivedate=2009-05-19 |df= }} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.fineantiqueprintsandart.com/artists.php?cat=254&manufacturerid=186 |title=Daniel M.
