Issued by San Marino, this elegant 2 Lire postage stamp features the vibrant Phlox paniculata, beautifully illustrated in shades of pink against a pale blue background. Printed by Courvoisier S.A., a renowned Swiss security printer, the design captures the natural grace of the perennial garden flower. This issue is part of San Marino’s floral series celebrating ornamental plants, appealing to both botanical and thematic collectors. The clear typography and delicate color balance make it a fine mid-20th-century example of San Marino’s artistic philately.
