Oconee Bells Linocut Print — Shortia galacifolia

This linocut print is a clean and elegant rendering of Shortia galacifolia, commonly known as Oconee Bells—a rare and beloved wildflower of the southern Appalachian region.
Its compact design and quiet charm make it a beautiful addition to minimalist decor, cottagecore spaces, or any collection inspired by botanical illustration and woodland aesthetics.

Oconee Bells are found only in a few secluded pockets of the Carolinas and Georgia, where they grow along cool, shaded streambanks. They bloom early in spring with delicate, nodding white flowers and rounded evergreen leaves—so distinctive that botanists spent decades searching for them after their first discovery. Their rarity and unique beauty have made them an emblem of Appalachian biodiversity and a treasure for plant lovers.

The Oconee Bells design is 3x3 inches, hand-carved and hand-printed on 5x5 inch paper.
Each print is pulled individually, so slight variations in ink texture and pressure give every piece its own natural character. Perfect for framing, gifting, or incorporating into a curated gallery wall.
