Within this set, you'll find gloxinias, hibiscuses, calla lilies, chrysanthemums, pansies, orange blossoms, carnations, daisies, sweet peas, lilies, heliotrope, verbena, canna, centrosema, and more in full illustrated bloom! These lovely and versatile greeting cards were sourced from the pages of several flower grower’s catalogs of the 1890s.

We have a deep affection for vintage seed catalogs! These historical gems are a treasure trove of horticultural and agricultural history, offering intricate drawings and lithographs (often by unknown illustrators) alongside detailed descriptions of plants from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Published by seed and plant companies, these catalogs served as essential marketing tools, often sent to customers via mail. Beyond their historical significance, we can't help but be captivated by the beautiful illustrations they feature, inspiring our designs for cards, postcards, and art prints. We have a collection of these catalogs in our archives and often use them to inspire our designs!

This product was custom designed and created at our Seattle location and comes with envelopes, all elegantly presented within a deluxe keepsake box.
