In the 19th century, amateur naturalists preserved their botanical specimens in herbarium collections. Pressed flat and carefully labeled, they served as aids in identifying different species and cultivars. This card features Nodding Onion, a wildflower native to the Midwestern US and unusual among alliums for its drooping flower clusters. This set of eight A2 (4.24" x 5.5") notecards also includes eight gummed, kraft paper envelopes in the European style, featuring a pointed flap ideal for use with a wax seal or decorative sticker. The notecards are blank on the inside, ready to receive your messages. This product and its packaging are plastic free and are recyclable or home compostable.
