Botanicals: 100 Postcards from the Archives of the New York Botanical Garden

Beautiful high quality cards

The post cards are high quality. The illustrations are beautiful. Now I need a matching postcard stamp!

The most important feature in a postcard is the card stock and these are well made.Absolutely worth the price.

I’m obsessed with these cards! There are no repeat cards and the details are amazing. I use them as thank you notes, but it’s also a nice reminder to send snail mail to someone you haven’t heard from/spoken to lately.

probably one of the most beautiful postcard collections you'll ever buy, with a WIDE array of exotic botanical varietals -- a riot of color and shapes on thick card stock that's a fantastic value, to boot.there's a large section of stunning orchids and a nice selection of cacti, as well as a beautiful set of passion fruit flowers. if you're like me, it will pain you to part with them and you'll purchase several boxes -- and even repurpose the equally beautiful, sturdy boxes.i think everyone i sent these to displays them on their fridge or somewhere, people seem to really appreciate how lovely they are.a new ROSE edition was just released, and i highly recommend it, as well.

After spending quite some time looking just about everywhere for simple "Thank You" postcards, I FINALLY found these on Amazon. (I even looked on Amazon a while back, but never saw these until last week.) All I wanted or needed was pretty cards to include with the packages I post to my buyers on Ebay. Something simple, something tasteful. It is harder than one would think to find such a thing. Thank goodness someone put this box of cards together-----and at such a terrific price, too.I saw one "poison" plant card which I probably won't be sending to anyone. Too bad I didn't have this card when I sold my awesome old cobalt blue glass Owl Drug poison bottle a couple years ago. It would have been a great card to send with that little bottle.Such wonderful art on each and everyone of these cards. I have posted a photo of eight of my favorites for you to see-----and these are eight I picked out of only about 30 that I have looked at so far. It is an embarrassment of riches to have these sublime cards on hand.I love the address lines, too. Whenever I post a package, I make sure and write on a card what the item is being posted, along with the address. You never know when and how mail may get waylaid and the outside address destroyed.There is one problem that I foresee, however: I will spend too much time trying to decide on just the right card to share and it will be painful to give up many of these, as each one is splendid and deliciously enchanting in its own right.Buy these cards. You will love them, too.

I was SO excited to order these but very disappointed when I received them. I still think it's a great value for the price, but it could have been better if they just chose different stock to print them on. I collect Botanical art and illustration on a small scale, and these are "eh". The illustrations are fine (I wish some of them hadn't been zoomed in and cropped going off the edges), but what got me was the cards themselves- they are matte and BRIGHT WHITE. I'm used to botanical illustration being on cream or ivory backgrounds, which make the kind of earthy colors of the art "pop". On matte white, the illustrations seem a little dull, and the BRIGHT negative space competes too much with the illustrations themselves.It's like if you found some low resolution images online and printed them on your home printer on matte white cardstock you get at the office supply store. That's basically what these cards are, so I'm disappointed.

Very cute post card:)

Superschöne Karten, die man als Deko verwenden oder eben versenden kann. Tolle Verpackung, die man weiter verwenden kann. Ich bin begeistert und würde sie immer wieder kaufen.Man kommt ewig aus und erfreut sich an jeder Karte neu.

Un peu longue à recevoir mais cela valait le temps d attente, ces cartes sont magnifiques, le support en carton glace et l impression complètent l envie de les encadrer au lieu de les envoyer
