I gather up all the fallen blooms of my CC's and add them to my potpourri . They keep their color.
Have not added all that much to my forever growing pil of dried this and that.
I have a tote-full and am not using it for anything in the last few years.

Some of you may remember--I make lace potpourri balls to use as scented sachets wherever you please.
Seems everything has been on hold for the last bunch of years. I am sad--but do not have the time to sit and work
on anything. In my heart I want to finish all my little craft projects---but, alas.....
DG has a lot to do with it. Spend too much time on here. Love it, of course.

Doing the gentle tug tests on my little sections of CC cuttings. The ones I collected as broken off pieces.
They seem to be rooting! Sitting under my seed lights. That HAS TO be the secret....
My Brug cuttings are growing into small trees.

PLEASE--anyone interested in either the Dr. Seuss or the NOID deep pink Brugmansias--let me know
before out seed swap in Frederick. I will bring them to share.

Here are the sachets....from 2009 when I made a bunch.
