M20: Daisy Postcard

This is another 3D postcard that shows daisies. Probably the same bouquet of daisies as the M19 Postcard, just shot in a different angle.

M19: Daisy Postcard

This is a 3D postcard that shows three daisies (as what the back of the postcard says). I also had time identifying the exact specie of the daisy. There are about 1,600 genera and 23,000 species of the family Asteraceae or Compositae (known as the aster, daisy, or sunflower family).

M17: Rose Postcard

This is a 3D postcard that shows a bouquet of red and pink roses in a vase and taken in a studio, I assume. There are over 100 species of rose so I cannot identify the exact species of the roses in the postcard.

Roses in the Philippines are grown either in the open or in greenhouses. Benguet, Cavite, Batangas, Tagaytay, Cebu, Iloilo, Negros Occidental and Davao City are major producers of roses (cut flowers) in the Philippines, and the varieties of roses commercially grown include Red Success, Mercedes, Golden Times, Texas, White Liberty, Jacaranda, Raphaela and Athena.

M15: Philippine Orchid Postcard

This is a 3D postcard that shows a Philippine orchid. It looks like it is the same orchid as the MF23 Postcard; either Cattleya or Phalaenopsis.

MF23: Philippine Orchid Postcard

The postcard shows another Philippine orchid. Am not sure if this is a Cattleya or Phalaenopsis. If anyone can identify the orchid, do leave a comment. I will then research more about the said orchid.
