Three definitive stamps illustrated with beautiful flowers is all it takes to turn a humble white envelope into something far more interesting. Thanks a lot Siegward!

I know they are definitive stamps, sometimes not that well regarded by stamp collectors who usually praise larger stamps with nice illustrations, smaller print runs, but definitive stamps have an aura of their own.

And these are particularly desirable, I  find. The full set numbers more than 40 stamps I believe, all with a different flower....quite a garden of their own....

The 0,20 €, featuring a Common bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta), was issuied on 18DEC2018;

The 0,70 €, featuring a  Chocolate Cosmos (Cosmos atrosanguineus) was issued on 01MAR2017; 

The 0,80 €, featuring a Nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus) was issued on 01JUL2019.

The stamps are cancelled with a Briefzentrum 13 postmark, indicating that it was posted at North Berlin.
