Beauties of the desert: postcards

Date

1980 (year approximate) to 1999 (year approximate)

Description

Beauties of the desert. An accordian style fold out of 14 postcards of various desert plants. "A strange and colorful region, a place of rare beauty, a place that will overwhelm, fascinate and intrigue you. The desert is well known for its turquoise skies, far horizons, blue veiled mountains with tinted peaks, purpled shadowed canyons, flaming sunsets, starlit nights, the gentle majesty of the morning and the glory of a sun-filled day. In springtime, the desert in bloom defies description. In places it can be seen as a carpet of living color-- flowers in profusion of infinite variety, shade and hue. The Palo Verde trees, Mesquite, Creosote, and many others are all a blaze of color. Cactus has its appealing and captivating moments, when it puts forth its exquisite blossoms, so radiantly beautiful."
