This is the first time I have grown them. I had not thought about it...but now I will give it a go. Have you ever?

I will have to find out what to do and let you know how it goes.

I think this one could look really good dried.

It is easy. Pick them and hang them upside down in a warm dry place until the stems dry off. If you think the stems will not dry then wire the heads before you dry them and cut the stem away later. I have not seen these before and they are lovely. Because it is quite flat it would work well on a birthday card. Use glue to fix it.
