Dried Hibiscus leaves?
Posted: 12 Aug 2020, 12:28
Hello everyone!
A quick question for you...
I am looking for advice on how to dry leaves of my tropical hibiscus (and other plants). Bamboo likes it but he would eat just the base of the flower, leaving the beautiful flower leaves, which they will be thrown away after the day is over.
I think that it’s a waste, because it’s a big flower for them. I know about dried hibiscus leaves to make tea, but I don’t have anything such as driers or fancy stuff. I placed today’s leaves between two pieces of paper towel and I place it under direct sunlight.
I just think they will wither and rot at some point but tell me if I’m doing it ok, so that I can place some dandelions flowers, plantain and other leaves too!
Thanks!
Lucre
