I have a question that's not related to flowers health.
Some of you may recall I make candles. A lot of time ago one of my dearest virtual friend in Lake Taohe used to make wax lanterns with dried flowers, she was drying the flowers by herself. She explained me how to do it but I never really tried.
Now, an idea came to my mind. I'd like to try with DL flowers. But I don't know if they can be dried since they have such a short life time, and how. I'd need them open or with sepals and tepals divided to stick them on a candle and fix them. Anyone has an idea on how to proceed? I never dried any flower before, and daylilies seem so weak to me.
I'm including a picture of what my dear friend could make. I lost her somewhere in the internet. Se went through a very hard and difficult moment and she took a road she shouldn't have take. I miss her.
Thank you for reading and for any idea you will have!
