The best way to dry flowers is through the use of a desiccant, wherein flowers are buried until they dry. In this way, the colors and shapes of the flowers are preserved in their dried condition.
Nevertheless, the most common way of drying flowers is by hanging or air drying. The leaves are removed from the stems and the flowers are hung upside down in a dry, warm, dark place where. Flowers should not be dried in damp areas such as porches, garages or basements, where the specimens can be ruined.
This method can take one tp two weeks of longer, depending on the cut stem moisture and the ambient humidity. In this method the flowers can be dried in their different stages, whether still buds, partially opened, or in full bloom.
