This Portuguese stamp, issued for the Madeira archipelago in 1991, features the Araçazeiro (Psidium cattleianum), a fruit-bearing tree belonging to the guava family. The detailed illustration highlights its glossy green leaves and ripe fruits in varying stages of maturity, ranging from green to deep red. Native to tropical regions, this plant became naturalized in Madeira, where it is appreciated for both ornamental and culinary use. Part of a series showcasing Madeira’s rich flora, the stamp carries a face value of 70 escudos. A fine example of Portugal’s botanical philately, it is especially prized by collectors of thematic issues related to plants and regional heritage.
