Posti Group Oyj (previously Suomen Posti during 1994–2007 and Itella during 2007–2015), trading internationally as Posti Group Corporation, is the main Finnish Postal Service delivering mail and parcels in Finland.

Two Postage stamps titled "Flower Garden" have been issued by Posti on 20.01.2021, designed by Paula Salviander.

 For her stamp designs, Paula Salviander has illustrated an abundant flower garden that can be used to decorate spring messages sent during Easter, for example and other spring greetings. 

The stamps are meant to bring cheer to the country/world after the 2020 Chinese Wuhan Virus onslaught.

The stamps feature daffodils, tulips, carnations, lilies, hydrangeas, Chinese hibiscuses, sunflowers, peonies and gerberas. Flower Garden has been issued as a 10-stamp sheet containing two different domestic no-value indicator stamp designs. 

The First Day Cover (FDC) depicts the flowers included in the Stamp set titled - "FLOWER GARDEN" at the bottom.

The two stamps issued in the set are affixed at top right. The special Cancellation Handstamp/Postmark shows a flower in the centre and is dated - "20.01.2021" and is of Helsinki Post Office.



The two Stamps issued in the set are both no-value indicator stamps.
