Dandelion are in full blossom right now. I want to dry some flowers to have dandelion tee later in the season. How do I do that? Should I lay them on news paper? I don’t now how to do it.

Bonus question: Do you know if I can eat cherries tree flowers?

Thank you follow foragers!

    I would recommend using a basket for drying in a cool, location with some air flow. I used it last year for my Calendula flower heads. I might remove the bitter bottom of the flower before drying.

      Thank you for the advice. This is what I ended uo doing, except for the removal of the bottom. I’ll try it. I may be too late.
