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!

    Yes, I’m in Canada! You get a much earlier spring than we do with the advantage of the gulf stream. I live in a very temperate part of the country, but we still haven’t reached our “last frost” date, and even though some perennials are starting to bloom we still go below freezing some nights. I expect our dandelions in 6-8 weeks probably.

      I see. That’s why this community is so calm when I jump in the herbs like a little kids for two good weeks now!
