"Around the middle of the eighteenth century the French priest and botanist Jean Paul de Rome d’Ardène resigned his post as Supérieur of the Collège de Marseille and retired to the Château d’Ardène in the diocese of Sisteron, where he established a garden and devoted himself to botany. He wrote a series of treatises, each one dedicated to the cultivation of a particular flower prized by the botanists, floriculturists and connoisseurs of the period. The treatise on the ranunculus, published at Paris in 1746, was the first, to be followed by others on the hyacinth (1759), the tulip (1760) and the carnation (1762), all published at Avignon. …" (An Oak Spring flora p. 292). A second edition was published in 1765.
