Hang Dry

Tie the stems together with string or twine and hang them in a loose bunch or individually from a rail, nails, or hooks.

Keep the flowers away from sunlight from the moment they’re cut to retain as much colour as possible during the drying process.

The faster a flower dries, the better the colour will keep and good air circulation is key to helping flowers dry quickly. Keeping dust and light off the flowers will also help with drying your flowers as well as possible while maintaining vibrant colours. Leave them undisturbed for two or three weeks to dry. Unscented hairspray can then be sprayed over the flowers to help preserve the colour and form for longer.
