DRIED FLOWERS

We dry as many flower varieties from our range as possible

WHY DRY?


Dried flowers are truly special: having them on display in the winter when nothing else is in bloom can be a real delight - and they really do keep their form and colour for years and years, if kept in the right conditions! 


When our fresh flower season finishes in October we absolutely love being able to continue working with flowers during the  winter. Making our 'everlasting' bouquets and wreaths keeps us busy until the following spring. 

We love having the opportunity to experiment with different flower varieties and seeing what dries particularly well. Now, with five years' experience growing so many different annual and perennial flowers, we have been able to carefully select our favourites for drying. Each year we can't resist trying out another variety or two, so we are constantly expanding our repertoire and updating the 'look' of our dried bouquets. 


The drying process is very simple, but the results are astonishingly beautiful. We harvest the flowers in full bloom and, after conditioning and bunching them, they are hung upside down to air dry in our barn - away from bright sunlight so their colour doesn't bleach out. At the height of summer our barn is a feast for the eyes!

When the flowers have finished drying we untie them and store them safely in a dark, dry place until we begin working with them in the winter.
