Hi! Quick question about mixing fresh flowers with dried, in vase arrangements. How can I avoid the dried flower stems from touching the water (dried flower stems and water are a bad combination )? Just cut them above the water line and hope they stay in place? Thank you !

I have been growing and drying a variety of flowers this year, having got back into dried flowers by being given a pack of helichrysum seeds by a friend, but they are not as large as yours!
I have also been pressing some of my flowers and leaves especially as I have had an absolute plethora of forget-me-nots.
I was also given some herbal salvias that have been fantastic especially as we have had humming bird hawk moths visit and enjoy the salvias!
And now, after a hot dry spring and a soggy summer, we have 30°c in September in Cornwall ! Phew and the garden is having a hurrah for the sun, several plants that thought they were finishing are now having another bloom! Thankyou Lord for the garden and the flowers!

Quaking grass was easy to dry – ‘greater quaking grass’ is taller.
Gypsophila dries very well and keeps its white colour and is a perfect filler.
Dahlias (double/multi petalled) are tough when dried and comes in variety of colours (best ones are pom-poms)…there’s a video on YouTube on ‘Gardeners World’ in UK of a lady who grows Dahlias just for drying.
Gomphrena – comes in lots colours and keeps its colour when dried.
Im experimenting using double flowered Zinnias this year (2023) as they also come in lots of colours and of good size.

The wreath room (wreathroom) on Instagram is really inspiring to follow and they welcome questions to those aspiring to grow flowers to dry.

Last year I purchased 2 packs of your straw flowers seeds. I started them in the house. They have been sensational. They are the joy of my neighborhood. They are the red w yellow centers. They have grown 5 feet tall & are so abundant. Will they self seed? Are u selling the seeds this year? I don’t see them . Love them! Thanks

I live in SW Louisiana, which is one of the most humid places on earth. Do you have any suggestions on the best way to dry flowers in a place like this?
