Giant poppy heads (papaver), Natural

Dried flowers are really easy to care for and zero maintenance! Here are a few tips on how to keep your flowers looking beautiful for years to come.

Remember dried flowers are fragile and may change over time. Being natural they may well change but they will last for years if not a life time, if you look after them well. 

• No water! Don't let your flowers get wet, it will make their stems weak and mouldy.
• Try to keep them warm and dry at all times.
• Avoid direct sunlight. Dried flowers will naturally fade over time and this is part of their charm. They are slow to fade if you keep them away from direct sunlight.
• You may well see some fall out from grasses and some petals as time goes on. You can always replace stalks or refresh your flowers at any time.
• If you keep them in a quiet space where you don't have to move them often they will last longer. Dark rooms, side tables and spare rooms are great spaces. No bathrooms or saunas!
• If you ensure you have a good airflow around your blooms and prevent big temperature fluctuations, they will be very grateful. 
• You can also use a hairdryer on a low cool setting and blow them from a distance.
