As the name would suggest, beautiful daylily blooms only last about 24 hours. Eve Choi, Curator of Horticultural and Environmental Education at Meijer Gardens, shares how to preserve these and any other flowers using things you likely have at home.

But how do you keep the colors or enhance them after? Sometimes they fade and I haven't found any paints or dyes that work... Thank you!

@meijergardens 3 жыл бұрын

One way to avoid fading is to keep the pressed flowers away from sunlight. The pigments will naturally fade as the plant dries, so we suggest selecting a vibrant bloom.

@khaxjc1 2 жыл бұрын

I have read that several sealant types have uv the uv protection to help keep the flowers from fading. They also mean that moisture wouldn't be able to get at the flower once dried. If you look up sealing pressed flowers you can find comparisons on types, their advantages and disadvantages.

Does the Parchment paper have to be a certain kind? I’m looking online and all I’m seeing is “pre-cut nonstick full parchment paper for baking, grilling, frying steaming” Is this the same parchment paper you’re using? Or is there a different kind I need to buy? Im going with the ironing style for my flowers

I want to recycle my own paper and I add it to the paper. Will this work because I’d be adding moisture back to the flowers?

@meijergardens 3 жыл бұрын

If you are looking to add a whole pressed flower to homemade paper, we think that would work! You would prepare the paper as you normally would, lightly set it into the paper, and let everything dry. We have not tried this before - so if you do, we'd love to hear how it goes for you!

@SABINE0666 2 жыл бұрын

@@meijergardens yes I had to be very careful inserting the flowers in the pulp without ruining the paper so it wouldn't have holes. It really helps placing them in the water right before taking the filter out with both pulp and flowers in it. Remember no to use big ones since it represents more weight. Thank you for your help

They are different but I believe both will do the job because it’s mostly about protecting the flower from its surrounding during the pressing/drying stage
