Tips

  • You can also dry flowers with large stamens for decoration, such as poppies or love in the mist. Secure some chicken wire or mesh between two horizontal wooden boards, then drop the stamens into the gap with the flower stems pointing upwards.
  • Your dried flowers will take on a deeper shade. White flowers may turn a deep brown, while red or purple flowers will turn black. Yellow flowers often experience the same deepening of color.
  • Silica gel will turn pink as it absorbs moisture. To dry out the gel and reuse it, spread the beads on a baking tray and place in an oven at 121°C for 2-3 hours.
  • Flowers begin wilting immediately after being picked. For the best results, begin the drying process right after cutting the flowers from their stems.
