First Day City: The First Day of Issue Ceremony was held in Woodburn, Oregon, at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival, an annual event celebrating tulips and other elements of Dutch culture (such as wooden shoes).
About the Tulip Blossoms set: According to the USPS, the set was issued to celebrate spring and the popularity of tulips across America. Each of the 10 stamp designs pictures a close-up of a tulip from photographs by Denise Ippolito. The flowers fill nearly the entire frame of each stamp.
History the stamp represents: Along the border of Sussex and Kent, England, lies Pashley Manor, a 15th-century estate known for its beautiful gardens and annual tulip festival. The estate spans 11 acres and includes a gift shop, café, and plenty of pathways visitors can walk along to view the grounds.
Pashley Manor was owned by the Boleyn family starting with Sir Geoffrey Boleyn, mayor of London in 1457 and great-grandfather of Anne Boleyn. The estate was passed down through the generations until it was sold to Sir Thomas May in 1540. May took down the original house (located on a moated island) and built the house that still stands today north of its first location. The first garden was completed in 1720, but became overgrown and lost in the landscape over the years. However, in 1982, renovations and replantings began. The gardens continue to grow and change as time goes on.
The Pashley Manor Tulip Festival is held every year around late April and lasts through early May. The garden includes over 48,000 tulips that have been planted according to color in different garden “rooms.” There is also a Bluebell Walk that blooms around the same time as the garden’s tulips. With its many areas to explore, Pashley Manor is the perfect place to visit during the spring.
