Bas, those are very beautiful Maxi Cards. I bet the rest 47 would be awesome too.

I'm a collector on flower stamps but did not no about this Maxi card issues. Thanks for sharing. Will search if I can get this complete set.

Yes they are very interesting and the back of the card tells where each flower is from and includes information about the flower.

Unfortunately a lot of the sets have been broken up and sold individually, but you might be lucky to find a whole set somewhere. Price might be around $US50-100. Let me know if you would like me to tell you if I see any complete sets available.

I will try to scan some more cards

BTW I have spare flower stamp sheets from CCCP if you need any

Russia USSR CCCP 1984 Aquatic Flowers Set of 5 Stamps MNH
Russia USSR CCCP 1988 Broad-leaved forest flowers MNH

Bas, even the one shared above is beautiful.

I already have the Russian stamps you mentioned. Infact I've almost finished the flower stamps from Russia. Shall post what all I've, soon.

It would be grateful of you to help me find the complete set of Maxi Cards.

My latest addition is from Great Britain. These are Post & Go stamps from vending machines, released in 2014 at different dates.
All of them in a presentation pack with respective details about the flowers as well as the stamps.

Hi scinde_dawk

I'm sorry I missed one of your previous posts.

Here are some nice Russian Maxi cards Wild Flowers from 1983 for you to enjoy.(Or perhaps you have them already)

Very nice flowers from 1949 - look to be in good condition.

Australia 18c Helichrysum wildflower stamp (1975)
Not sure if this is a possible print flaw on the lower LH stamp. The stamp is catalogued as having quite a number of printing flaws.

Both sent on this postcard showing the Hoodia bainii. If I can get a SWA 25c mint stamp I will make it into a maxi-card
