Drying Dandelions & Roses

 Have you tried Dandelion tea? I know there are some blends of herbal teas that contain it& some of mine most likely does,anyways before the grass got cut I decided to gather the dandelions from the yard,gave them a rinse in a mix of vinegar & water then laid them out on a paper towel while making coffee & giving Grace🐕 her meds then laid them a parchment lined cooked sheet & dried them  in a 175 degree oven for about 3 hours


all this rain  is making the roses petals fragile,so I did the research to see if my roses "knockouts"& "drift" fall into the herbal list & they do ,just touching them they fell off,so I gathered them up & have a good rinse, they're  up next lol


I had a bouquet of knock out roses that O was about to toss out,🤔hummm turns out since it's suggested  to air dry rose petals  for richer colors you can use your dried out bouquet as long as they haven't been sprayed with pesticides & making sure they fall into the list of roses that can be used for herbal teas
