Orchids are beloved by plant experts and casual flower lovers alike for their gorgeous colors, unusual look, and delicate features. Part of the largest family of plants on Earth, orchids grow in many climates and thrive under a variety of conditions. There are more than 30,000 species of wild orchids in the world, with more than 100 species native to North America.

Each stamp features one of these nine species that grows wild in the United States: Cypripedium californicum,?Hexalectris spicata,?Cypripedium reginae,?Spiranthes odorata,?Triphora trianthophoros,?Platanthera grandiflora,?Cyrtopodium polyphyllum,?Calopogon tuberosus, and?Platanthera leucophaea.

Many of the orchids native to North America are endangered or threatened, making sightings in their natural environment all the more rare and wonderful. Numerous organizations across the country work to preserve these striking wildflowers and their habitats. Orchids are considered some of the most exotic flowers in the world. Whether growing wild in damp woodlands, thriving in a cultivated garden, or blooming on a windowsill, these extraordinary flowers are wonders to behold.

The?Wild Orchids?stamps are being issued as Forever? stamps. These Forever stamps will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail? one-ounce price.
