A nice surprise today from a fellow Postcrosser is this lovely card showing The State Flower of South Australia. The Sturt Desert Pea. This flower named after a famous early Australian explorer is a truly beautiful flower/s that can grow in really dry conditions . They grow in clumps and are one of my favourite Australian wildflowers. Their shiny appearance gives them a look that they are made of wax.. Thank you Jenny for this nice card.This is the first concesson stamp on a card that I have received..This stamp is a concession stamp issued to pensioners in Australia so as no one loses the chance to contact their friends..I believe that this is a great service to our senior citizens and is to be applauded. A small book of stamps is issued each year to the person and has stamps enclosed that can only be used within Australia at no cost to the sender.
