Herbarium Pressed Flower Collection : For Eco printing
These exquisite collections of pressed flowers have been put together specifically for use in eco printing - but they can also just be appreciated for their beauty.
There are four A4 sheets in each pack - the pressed plants are labelled and carefully attached to a backing sheet with paper tape and then interleaved with tissue and packed into a sturdy folder.
They include 2 types of coreopsis - the traditional dyer’s coreopsis and a more frondy, tiny flowered one - scabious black knight and cosmos. All the flowers will print both sides.
The plants are harvested here in the Snapdragon garden and are grown with great care for everything which lives here, from soil microorganisms to insects, birds, mammals and reptiles. No pesticides or artificial fertilisers are used.
I am putting together very small editions of these herbariums - there are ten in this edition.
Unfortunately these cannot be sent outside the UK due to import/export regulations on plant materials.
