Cherry blossoms and the Jefferson Memorial - appropriate today as the National Cherry Blossom Festival runs from 18 March - April 16th this year.
Can I claim to be a wise old sage for hitting the dates for it?
At least I can show some:

Hi Bob - we're getting the early blossoms now ... sage is a great herb isn't it ... love the stamps - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteIt isn't the first time I read it, but I really like the slogan "Plant for a more beautiful America". Those stamps are beautiful, Bob.
ReplyDeleteThe USA stamps block of 4 is lovely but I think I'm partial with that sage stamp! Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI can see why the 5c stamp was updated and reissued a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteI like the sage stamp as well - I think this was for the domestic postcard rate.
I have always wanted to see these blossoms in DC
ReplyDeleteBut it is hard to time it exactly - and this year the sudden snow storm killed off quite a few of them.
Yes, fun to see your stamp post again. Enjoy your weekend, Bob.
ReplyDeleteThe Cherry blossom stamps are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the cherry blossoms, especially in Japan. The stamps are pretty, as is the sage.
