Flower pressing time!

​

As the season winds down, my flower pressing speeds up. We're due for a freeze any time now - last night the La Plata mountains near my farm got their first snowfall. It's a reminder to fill up my stashes of dried pressed flowers and leaves. The best candidates in my garden are Sulfur Cosmos, Jet Black Hollyhock, Dyer's Coreopsis, and any tannin-rich leaves such as sumac and oak. They make for a winter of beautiful ecoprints!​​​
