Wow, you've received so many pink flowers. Flowers seem to be a universal theme.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is a country without stamps of flowers.
DeleteWow, these are all so beautiful (the Hungarian one is my favourite!)
ReplyDeleteAnd 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...
Some of these are really spectacular. Little masterworks!
DeleteThe German definitives never get boring, do they?!
ReplyDeleteThere is a huge peony at a house across the road from me and I always look forward to its heavy blooming.
Never! I really love that series, even if I have got those stamps many many times.
DeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteEverybody loves that German series!
DeleteDelightful 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.
ReplyDeleteI don't know these flowers in person, I'm afraid.
DeleteBeautiful stamps, and even enlarged the (small) German stamps look great!
ReplyDeleteThe Bremen Town Musicians postmark is my favorite German postmark (how I wished that Dutch PostNL would start pictoral cancellations...)
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 ;)
