Lauren van der Vinne of Haarlem worked for horticulturists as well as the Leiden professor of botany Adriaan van Roijen. Given the inclusion of scientific details in this drawing, it must have been made for him. Along with the leaves and the flower, Van der Vinne depicted the corona and one of the stamens.
