There is usually sentimental reason for drying these particular flowers Silica gel is the commodity generally used now for drying flowers It comes in one pound containers or larger and in Barrie was usually available from Tandy Leather florist could order it for you The Civic Garden Centre has its own combination for drying flowers which produces some excellent results To the new brides or their mothers this story about myself may interest you It was May 1939 de ression years and was nursing in Michigan My husban tobe had just moved East Barrie from the West Winnipeg because there was money in the East and none in the West My peo ple were all in Canada so made my own wedding arl rangements For some reason wanted Corsage of gardenias so got it It was simple wedding and all my thoughts were on coming back to Canada and making home Exactly one year ago was cleaning out bookcase to give some books to the horticultural societys Country Fair and as threw large volume on the floor out tell my bridal corsage 39 years later It gave me shock and for moment stood and looked at it then put it back in the little dint it had made for itself and put the book back on the shelf couldnt even tell you what book it is in So that was quick cheap and sure way of preserving my wedding flowers very nice thing to do when you are travelling or even at hotne is to press flower for some dear one and then on special day send it to them got prairie rose one Christmas from very dear friend in the West Since in my day children walked to school passed hundreds of these roses and that rose brought back So many memories Many flowers and leaves press beautifully and easily and during long cold winter evenings could be made into prints As orted colo sof Oueen Our Re Esmond Pinsonic qurlted bed
