The stamp art highlights photos taken by photographer Jim Fowler. Art director Ethel Kessler designed the stamps. The stamps were issued on February 21, 2020. Each stamp features a photograph of one of these nine species: Cypripedium californicum, Hexalectris spicata, Cypripedium reginae, Spiranthes odorata, Triphora trianthophoros, Platanthera grandiflora, Cyrtopodium polyphyllum, Calopogon tuberosus, and Platanthera leucophaea. Within the booklet, each stamp design is featured twice. Orchids are beloved by plant experts and casual flower lovers alike for their gorgeous colors, unusual look and delicate features. Part of the largest family of plants on Earth, orchids grow in many climates and thrive under a variety of conditions. There are more than 30,000 species of wild orchids in the world, with more than 100 species native to North America. Many orchids native to North America are endangered or threatened, making sightings in their natural environment increasingly rare. These striking flowers are native to damp woodlands and numerous organizations across the country are working to preserve their habitats. Orchids also thrive in cultivated gardens or as houseplants. This listing is for a double-sided booklet of 20 postage stamps.

The stamps were shipped in cardboard, so the were perfect when they arrived. I also had a very nice message from the shipper and a bonus mystery message stamp. I loved it! How clever and fun. Really made my day!!

They’re simple and just beautiful, and elevate any color envelope from just okay to gorgeous. In fact, I love their versatility and the way they change the look of a plain envelope so much, I’m going to buy some more. Really.
