Issued by West Germany (Bundesrepublik Deutschland) in 1974, this attractive semi-postal pair features finely illustrated botanical subjects supporting welfare funding. The 50+25 Pfennig stamp depicts the vibrant Hibiscus (Malve), while the 70+35 Pfennig stamp shows the elegant Bellflower (Glockenblume). Designed with clean botanical accuracy and pastel backgrounds, the set reflects the popular German tradition of combining floral themes with charity issues. Semi-postal surtaxes funded social welfare programs, making these stamps historically meaningful as well as visually appealing. Well-centered mint or postally used examples are sought after by collectors of German semi-postals, flora themes, and 1970s European commemoratives.
