Frequently Asked Questions

Dried Flowers

How do I care for my dried flowers?

Humidity, direct sunlight and high temperatures are what cause the colours in dried flowers to fade fastest, so avoid displaying them in places such as bathrooms, kitchens, conservatories, next to heat sources and in sunny windows. Dried flowers are fragile so please handle them carefully - it’s possible that small bits may come loose if they’re handled frequently. If you need to clean dust off your dried flowers, you can use a hair dryer set on cool and at the lowest air speed to blow the dust away - try to handle the flowers as little as possible while doing this.

How long will my dried flowers last?

The length of time the colour in a dried flower will last depends on what type of flower it is and how it is cared for (see advice above). The colour of some dried flowers last for many years (including papery flowers like helichrysum and statice) while others fade more quickly, their muted tones giving them a lovely vintage appearance. Dried flowers won’t crumble to bits unless roughly handled and will stay intact for years.

Do you treat your dried flowers with any chemicals?

No, all of the flowers I grow for drying are grown without chemicals. They’re dried naturally and I never use dyes, bleaches, perfumes or other chemicals before, during or after the drying process. When I need to buy in flowers, I buy them from growers who also don’t use any chemical treatments.
