British stamps were first used in the colonies of Jamaica on May 8, 1858. Jamaica gained its own stamps in 1860 with values having different colours from one – six pence and one shilling which bore the head of Queen Victoria, the reigning monarch. There was also the introduction of the half-penny stamp (stamp cut diagonally). The first pictorial stamp was in1900, unpopular at first, then reissued in black and red the next year.


Exploding with the vibrant colours of wild orchids, ginger lilies, anthuriums and flowers that are easier to see than say, our gardens grow wild and free.
