This First Day Cover features a distinctive pixelated wildflower bouquet cachet in shades of pink, lavender, and teal on a black background, created by Technical Cachets. The cover bears a complete plate block of four 29-cent Wildflowers stamps (Kalmia, Round-lobed Hepatica, Mexican Hat, and Wild Columbine) canceled on July 24, 1992, in Columbus, Ohio. The modern cross-stitch aesthetic of the cachet artwork complements the botanical theme of this popular commemorative series.
