Why Choose Natural Dried Flowers?
As June rolls in, the garden is bursting with life, and the Paper Daisies are stealing the show. These beautiful blooms are really starting to thrive, and my drying wall is quickly filling up with clusters of pink and white daisies, creating a stunning display.
I pride myself on air-drying all the flowers I grow, never relying on chemical dyes. I’ve always found that nature provides all the color I need—after all, who really wants purple Wheat or pink Bunny Tail grass? Beyond that, chemical dyes are harmful to the environment, and many of those brightly colored flowers you see in stores are often imported from overseas, particularly China. In a time when sustainability is essential for our future, I encourage you to skip the artificial, dyed flowers that flood the supermarket shelves.
All of my dried flowers come with zero air miles, no dyes, and no chemical bleaches. For the occasional bleached grass or seed head, I simply leave them to the sun and let nature do its magic.
The vibrant pink hues of my Paper Daisies, which you’ll often find featured in my designs, are entirely natural. These flowers are truly remarkable—they retain their colour so beautifully when dried. It’s proof that, when it comes to flowers, nature really does know best.
