  1. Wow, you've received so many pink flowers. Flowers seem to be a universal theme.

    1. I don't think there is a country without stamps of flowers.

  2. Wow, these are all so beautiful (the Hungarian one is my favourite!)
    And those German definitives are also lovely, esp the second and the third one... I receive flower definitives from Germany quite often, but not these two...

    1. Some of these are really spectacular. Little masterworks!

  3. The German definitives never get boring, do they?!
    There is a huge peony at a house across the road from me and I always look forward to its heavy blooming.

    1. Never! I really love that series, even if I have got those stamps many many times.

  4. I always enjoy the German definitives too. Love the Bremen postmark, from memory I think I remember they did a stamp for the tower of animal statue (Town Musicians of Bremen). Love all the pretty pink flowers.

  5. Delightful collection of pink flowers. I shall have to examine our Phlox flowers later in the year as I cannot say what they look like close up - we have them in white and pink.

    1. I don't know these flowers in person, I'm afraid.

  6. Beautiful stamps, and even enlarged the (small) German stamps look great!

    The Bremen Town Musicians postmark is my favorite German postmark (how I wished that Dutch PostNL would start pictoral cancellations...)

    1. I also love that postmark. Here we have pictorial postmarks, but there aren't easy to get. Except the "geographical" ones: it's enough to go to the post office of a city/town and ask for them. If you are lucky, the postal clerk finds it and cancel your letters ;)
