8/10/2007 USPS returned to a flower theme with the issuance of ten Beautiful Blooms definitive stamps. Photographs of nine different flowers appear on these stamps available in a booklet format. Many of these flowers are found in gardens: the coneflower, dahlia, chrysanthemum, gerbera daisy, tulip and iris. Others for example the poppy, are often seen in masses along major highways. The water lily needs a pond as a home, while the magnolia bloom graces the tall and elegant tree. Noted photographer Mark Laita created the photographs used on the stamps.
