This was the first New Zealand Post stamp issue with seeds attached - and
possibly the last. While there was no problem exporting seeds from New
Zealand most countries strict import laws made it difficult for overseas
customers to import the original miniature sheets. For this reason, the
miniature sheet (shown above) and first day covers were also issued in an
'overseas' variety which has a photo of the seeds but no actual
seeds attached. The end result is three varieties of each
stamp:

The individual stamps (as shown above) had no seeds,
while the stamps from the miniature sheets and First Day Covers sold in New
Zealand had seeds attached and the stamps from the miniature sheets and
First Day Covers sold to overseas customers had photos where the seeds
should be but no actual seeds.
