Quercus ilex, Encina
Pinus sylvestris, Pino sylvestre.
Stamps issued by Spain in 2000
The stamps I use in these posts are either owned by me or have been lent to me to scan, however, these two stamps were photographed by my daughter who was visiting a friend and telling her about my flower / plant postage stamp project. Her friend’s father, who suffers from Alzheimer’s, jumped up and brought out his stamp collection to show his stamps of these two trees.
Pine trees and Oak trees are mentioned in
