Cutting for drying
9 years ago
last modified: 9 years ago
I have two different bloom pictures below and not sure where to cut ? I want to dry some of the blooms and don't want to mess anything up. Also if I cut the stem down it looks like I will be cutting new growth, is that ok ? Will this hurt next year's blooms
