The wreath room (wreathroom) on Instagram is really inspiring to follow and they welcome questions to those aspiring to grow flowers to dry.

Last year I purchased 2 packs of your straw flowers seeds. I started them in the house. They have been sensational. They are the joy of my neighborhood. They are the red w yellow centers. They have grown 5 feet tall & are so abundant. Will they self seed? Are u selling the seeds this year? I don’t see them . Love them! Thanks

I live in SW Louisiana, which is one of the most humid places on earth. Do you have any suggestions on the best way to dry flowers in a place like this?

Back when I was younger we had a 4 acre dry flower farm in northern Maine. We opened in the summer for pick your own bouquets and sold bouquets and handcrafted wreaths with locally sourced sea lavender ( foraged when we went on our weekly ocean outings!) I taught classes in wreath making in our old barn in late summer and early fall and taught dry flower design in evening classes in a local high school. It was quite an adventure. We stopped when we got older because it was a two person operation and there was no local help available. I have moved (several years later) to NC and at 79 am now learning to grow flower in a very different climate. I started quite late this year (my first here) but was encouraged when you talked about secession planting guessing I could get at least two maybe three here even though I started late. Next year it will be better as I get more acclimated to this climate. I love, love, love growing flowers!

Love flowers, cut OR dried!
I started making dried flower wreaths in 1992 for a company in Freeland, MI. I worked there for a couple years and then moved on to other endeavors. In 2018, my husband and I moved to 20 acres of country land with an apple orchard. Flowers have always had a place in my heart. I started making dried flower wreaths again on my own and started Roadside Naturals. We wanter to plant flowers on our property but weren’t sure how to do it (so we settled for pumpkins and gourds lol) After seeing Floret on Magnolia and all of the resources offered on the website, I am completely thrilled at looking into flower-growing again. Can’t wait to share this info with my husband!

So glad to see this site,we did dried flowers for 20 years back 20 years ago. It was the most interesting thing that happened to us, although we learned everything as we went no one was doing it so much ,I love this

Great info! Have always loved making dried wreaths. Thanks for your dried knowledge as they are so rewarding, always innovating with new ideas. The eucalyptus is a lovely addition, and Siri’s wreaths are way beyond the 80’s look.
