: | PHONE: Now is time to dry flowers AS THE THREAT of frost looms closer, we know we won’t be able to appreciate fresh garden flowers for much longer, However, their beauty can be ‘saved by drying them. For me, dried flowers make me feel for a moment that I have the upper hand on winter. "Late summer and early fali are the best times to get good results, from your flowers. Some easy to dry annuals are: ’ Larkspur — harvest when the spikes are 4/5ths in bloom. Love-in-the-mist and Statice are a good choice. ‘Pick when near to full ‘bloom, . For perennials try: ‘. Hydrangeas — harvest ‘when nights become cool, ‘just before frost, : Blazing Star — harvest ‘before top blooms of the “spike start to drop. : Silver King — _ harvest ‘from carly August through september, *. There are an abundance of “wild flowers that dry nicely. : Goldenrod harvest “when only 1/3 in bloom. > Pearly Everlasting — har- "vest when buttons begin to “open. Staghorn sumac — late summer and early fal! is the time to pick. Some locals are well FROM Bi AT THE MARKET. LYNNE CHRISTIANSEN known for their dried Dower arrangements.
