WASHINGTON. DC — The U.S. Postal Service announced today the Forever Garden Beauty Stamps are available for purchase. The stamps are being sold at Post Office locations nationwide and online.
One of the best parts of welcoming spring is looking forward to enjoying the outdoors again. After a cold. wet winter. it feels wonderful to get out and soak in the warm sunshine. And. of course. admiring all the beautiful flowers starting to poke their way through the ground.
In 2021. the United States Postal Service anticipated the arrival of spring with a new set of 10 Forever stamps honoring Garden Beauty. Each design pictures a different flower. with two species pictured twice. Some of these flowers are native to North America. while others made their way here from across the globe. Wherever they came from. today. they are some of the most popular species found in American gardens.
Flower gardens are fun to grow for many reasons. They fill your backyard with color and make for a lovely place to enjoy nature. They also support pollinators like bees and butterflies. If you have a fruit or vegetable garden nearby. more pollinators will help it thrive. It can also be fun picking out the species you want to include in your garden. Since different species bloom at different times. you can plan it so there will be flowers all the time. And who wouldn’t enjoy picking a fresh bouquet anytime they like?!
On February 23. 2021. in Bloomfield. IN. the United States Postal Service issued the Garden Beauty stamps (Forever priced at the First-Class Mail rate) in 10 designs. in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) booklet of 20 stamps (Item 683100). Garden Beauty stamps celebrate America’s love of flowers and gardens with 10 new stamp designs in a booklet of 20.
