Hi i just wondered if there is a trick to drying hydrangea flowers. At the moment i have some beautiful blue flower heads and would like to dry them so they are not crinkled ! i have tried alsorts so far , hanging them upside down as you do with most flowers, to just putting them in a vase without water. I would appreciate some ideas as i know someone will know.Thanks in advance.
