Everything is arranged so that the buds do not touch the table. They will only be in contact with craft packaging material.

The sorter has received all flowers of the same length and checks each rose for quality standards. She then packs them into bundles to be delivered to the customer.

When packing, it is important to choose the right side of the stem on which it is most comfortable, bud to bud, the next stem will be laid. They should lie tight enough - so as not to be mobile during transportation, but with the maximum safety of the petals.

To get a really healthy and tasty tea, it is better to collect the petals yourself. For this, roses growing in their own summer cottage are best suited, since in this case you can be 100% sure that no harmful chemicals were used when growing them.

Collect the petals in the morning, before the dew has gone. It is advisable to do this after the past rain, which will wash away dust and insects from them. Only fully bloomed flowers are suitable for collection, but wilted petals should be avoided.

Before that, the flowers are sorted out - wilted petals, stamens, debris, sepals are removed. Then the raw materials are transferred to a sieve and shaken to remove the crumbled pollen.

It is not necessary to wash the collected petals, this can damage them, moreover, there is a risk of washing out some of the useful elements from them. But if desired, such a procedure can be carried out. It is better to rinse the petals with a sieve or colander, and then lay them out on a paper towel. After that, they can be used immediately for brewing or laid out to dry.

Like other medicinal herbs, the petals should be dried in a shaded, well-ventilated area, spread out in a not very thick layer. From time to time, raw materials should be turned and turned over to avoid rotting and mold.

If you dry the petals in an electric dryer, they will be slightly different from those that dried naturally - they will decrease in size, but they will retain their color. Because of this, dried raw materials can fall through the holes in the pallets, so it is better to line them with gauze or paper.

It is interesting! To give the flower petals a pleasant berry or fruity aroma, you can put strawberries or wild strawberries next to the petals to dry. In this case, the flowers will absorb the smell of berries.

Fresh petals can also be stored for some time, for example, if at one time it was not possible to collect the right amount for brewing tea. To do this, they are placed in a bag, tied tightly and put in the refrigerator. In this form, their shelf life is approximately 1-2 days.
