| Hi I've lovely baby's breath and would love to pick and dry it. Last year I did this and didn't put it in any water just let it dry. So disappointed, the little flowers shriveled to nothing. Suggestions? |

| What varity of BB do you have, there are many? The common florist variety is "Perfecta"(larger blooms). Air dried BB will always have shriveled up blooms, esp. the smaller flowering types. Another, and I think better option, is preserving with glycerin. It is very easy to do and the BB stays soft and tender. It can also be colored most any color you wish at the same time. |
