The burying in borax method is mostly used for more open flowers suchas Canterbury Bells, Pansies, Zinnias, Marguerites, Daffodils, Scabious, forin this manner the form of the flower can be preserved as well as the colour. You will require a deep box, the bottom of which should be covered withpowdered borax. Strip all leaves from the flowers and shorten the stems, thenstand them on the borax and continue to put more powder around, under andover the flowers until they are completely covered. Smooth out the petals asyou cover them, so as to retain their original shape, and leave in this powderfor about three weeks. The powder should then be poured off or removed |
