Please note: these are non-denominated 34-cent stamps, not Forever Stamps. They were issued in self-adhesive format ahead of the 2001 first-class rate increase.

A first

This was the first time the Postal Service used photographs of flowers rather than illustrations.

The four subjects

Freesia, cymbidium orchid, longiflorum lily and Asian hybrid lily — two lilies and two very different blooms, chosen to show how much variation a cut flower can carry. Robert Peak of Winter Park, FL photographed them; the pictures are built around color and the fragility of the petals.

Peak's 25-year career has brought recognition as a photographer, a designer and a filmmaker, with fine art photographs published in major titles and held in collections worldwide. Derry Noyes of Washington, DC designed the stamps.

Formats

Self-adhesive booklet of 20 with stamps on both sides of the pane, a self-adhesive vending book of 20, and a self-adhesive coil of 100.
