Issued as part of the five-stamp Summer Garden Flowers booklet, this design was one of the “bright, pretty American stamps” the USPS hoped customers would enjoy using on everyday mail. The stamp paid the then-current 29-cent first-class postage rate and was first issued on April 28, 1994, in Cincinnati, Ohio, at the Greater Cincinnati, Ohio, Flower and Garden Show. The stamp was designed by artist Ned Seidler and printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2715\" data-start=\"2111\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"2134\" data-start=\"2111\"\u003eFLOWER DESCRIPTION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinnias are easy-to-grow garden flowers admired for their brilliant blossoms, long blooming season, and wide range of colors. They are native to the southwestern United States and to Central and South America, and they are also cultivated in Europe and other temperate growing regions. A zinnia blossom is made up of two types of flowers: tiny tube-shaped disk flowers in the center and petal-like ray flowers around the outside. Zinnias are commonly seen in red, yellow, orange, pink, apricot, cream, violet, and even green, with some varieties appearing multicolored or striped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3199\" data-start=\"2717\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"2760\" data-start=\"2717\"\u003eSTAMP MEANING \u0026amp; SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinnias often symbolize affection, endurance, joyful remembrance, and lasting friendship. Their vivid, cheerful blooms bring a sense of optimism, celebration, and heartfelt warmth, making this stamp especially fitting for happy mail, thank you notes, birthday greetings, summer invitations, and thoughtful personal correspondence. Because zinnias are long-lasting garden flowers, they can also represent constancy and enduring connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3825\" data-start=\"3201\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"3226\" data-start=\"3201\"\u003eSTAMP SERIES HISTORY:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Summer Garden Flowers booklet was the second seasonal installment in the Garden Flowers series, following the Spring Garden Flowers booklet issued in 1993. First issued on April 28, 1994, in Cincinnati, Ohio, the Summer Garden Flowers set featured lily, zinnia, gladiolus, marigold, and rose designs arranged as a connected bouquet. The series was created to offer bright floral stamps with strong public appeal for everyday mailing use. The booklet was printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing using lithographed and engraved methods, and the artwork was designed by artist Ned Seidler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-pasted=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGUMMED STAMPS:\u003c\/strong\u003e These postage stamps have a traditional moisture-activated gum on the back.
