The newest issue in the series of round global forever stamps from the United States Postal Service features a green succulent plant known as the echeveria.
The global forever stamps can be used to mail a 1-ounce letter to any country where first-class international mail service is available, regardless of future rate changes.
The central stamp’s design is described as an existing photograph by Erika Kirkpatrick of the echeveria, a succulent native to the Americas often kept as an ornamental plant in the United States.
The stamp was designed by Greg Breeding, and William J. Gicker was the art director for the project.
The Green Succulent stamps are the sixth in an ongoing series of round global forever stamps. The first, showing a view of Earth from space, was issued on Jan. 28, 2013.
The round shape of these stamps, along with the inscription “Global,” was initially intended to distinguish it as postage for international letter mail rather than domestic letter mail.
