Our cornflower plants grew pretty huge this year, so we finally have enough blossoms to harvest the flowers! Flower petals can be used in tea blends, and I’m reeeeally looking forward to making some blends up this year. Look at how beautiful they are! We don’t have very many yet, but I’m hoping we can collect more before the fall.
I’ve just grown lots of cornflowers from seed … they were for the insects, but now I shall harvest them for tea – thank you for the tip 🙂
