I have made dried flowers before. But not on a large scale. I have used the silica sand method with roses. I have a ton of extra roses and I want to make dry flower wreathes out of them. Is there any good way to dry alot of flowers at once. I won't to spend as little time as I can on drying. Also what are some must have books about drying flowers??

Thanks a ton, Bucky

Keep them out of direct sunlight for better color, and if you're drying a lot make sure you have adequate ventilation to prevent mold and speed up the drying. A regular fan in the room will do. A little heat is good too.

As your flowers dry they'll keep opening up a bit so make sure you do it when they're still buds or just slightly open.

I was wondering what I was doing wroung. No one was writing. I want to make rose flower wreath's. I have over 500 roses bushes so I don't want them to go to waste.

Thanks, Bucky
