The Date Palm - Deglet Nour
This stamp honors the “Queen of dates”, Deglet Nour. The illustration presents a lush palm grove, typical of the Jérid oases (Tozeur, Nefta), with a close-up of a branch loaded with translucent and honeyed dates.
The date palm is the tree of life in the Saharan regions. The Deglet Nour represents the excellence of Tunisian export agriculture and the centuries-old know-how of phoeniciculturists in the management of water and shade within the oases.
