Here at Dried we use a selection of stunning preserved flowers in our bouquets. Preserved flowers retain their colours, shape and appearance but unlike fresh flowers, won't wilt within a week, making them a beautiful, sustainable alternative to fresh flowers.
How do you preserve flowers?
Preserving flowers is a natural process. When a flower or plant has reached the perfect size, they're cut. They are then rehydrated using a biodegradable solution that is made from fresh plants. The flower absorbs the solution until all of its sap and water is replaced by it. Now the flower is perfectly preserved to last!
