I scored dozens of free flowers when dumpster diving yesterday. I'll use many of them to make practice floral arrangements and give a few to friends. Some of them are Statice amd another tiny filler type flower that will dry nicely.
In this haul are a lot of big white hydrangeas, each individually wrapped and each has a water sack. What a lot of labor goes into these! There are lots of gladiolas here, and more, if I want to go back to the dumpster. The weather is perfect for preserving them, in the 30's F.
I live close to the wholesale florist district and sometimes check the dumpsters. This was an especially good haul. And of course the things I dont use will be composted.
