Some Final Tips and Other Methods of Drying Hydrangeas

If you prefer to air dry your flowers,

you can simply hang your hydrangea blossoms upside down, by their stems.

Because of their large size, this is best done with individual flowers,

rather than bunching them together.

Air dried hydrangeas tend to be a bit more brittle

than water dried blossoms, but still beautiful.

You can also use other common flower drying techniques,

like silica gel and microwaving.While it's not optimal,

you can push the timing a bit and wait until your hydrangea blossoms have

begun to pick up their autumn tones of burgundy,pink, green or blue.

It's not the ideal way to dry hydrangea flowers,

but you'll get interesting tones and they will keep for quite a while.

However you dry your hydrangeas, expect the color to last for about 1 year.

After that, it will start to fade out.

 

一些訣竅和其他乾燥方式

如果你比較喜歡一般自然乾燥的方式,那就直接把繡球花倒掛乾燥.

由於繡球花比較大,一枝一枝單獨掛起來乾燥比一把直接乾燥地好.

此方式乾燥的繡球花花萼會比水式乾燥要脆,不過還是很漂亮.

你也可以試試看其他的乾燥方式,像是矽膠或是微波的方式.

然而這不是最佳的方式,你可以將採摘時間往後,

像是等到繡球花轉色成酒紅色,綠色,粉色,藍色等等,

這不是最理想的乾燥方式,但是能有不一樣的顏色.

通常乾燥後的繡球花,其顏色能維持一年左右,之後便開始褪色.
