PRESS BRIEF

INDIA POST 2014 CALENDAR – WILD FLOWERS OF INDIA

Department of Posts has released India Post 2014 Calendar based on the theme of “Wild Flowers of India”. 

India has a rich and varied heritage of plant diversity exhibiting a wide spectrum  from tropical rainforests to alpine vegetation and from temperate forests to the coastal  wetlands. The flora of India is one of the richest in the world due to its diverse climatic  regimes and topology. There is virtually no area in our country without a particular treasure  or species of special beauty or interest. 

India Post had issued a sheetlet of stamps and three miniature sheets as a tribute to the pristine beauty of twelve of its rare and beautiful wild flowers. India Post 2014 Calendar is inspired by these postage stamps. 

India Post 2014 Calendar is available at various Philatelic Bureaux in the country at the price of Rs. 250/- each.
