Grading vintage stamps, First Day Covers (FDC’s) is a subjective process.
As a philatelist, I do my best to put a fair value on items at a bargain price!
I do careful research before listing an item in order to determine an honest price.
I determine the value of vintage stamps & FDC’s by using the Scott Catalog AND by
the age, the rarity, the condition, the country, and the interest of the item’s subject.
Buy with confidence!
I guarantee all items listed.
If you're not satisfied, I offer hassle free refunds.

Thunbergia Lancifolia

Thunbergia Lancifolia is an erect,
branched, herbaceous perennial plant with stems that can become more or less
woody; it grows up to 90cm tall from a woody rhizome.
The plant is harvested from the
wild for local use as a food, medicine and hair shampoo. The large, showy, blue
flowers with orange-yellow throat and the erect, short, shrubby habit make this
a plant with potential as an ornamental.
