The bouquet of baby's breath you buy can be grown in water or made into dried flowers. When growing baby's breath in water, you need to prepare clean water and a vase of appropriate size. After cutting the branches at the bottom of the flowers diagonally, put them in water to cure. If you want to extend the storage time of flowers, you can preserve them as dried flowers. There are three methods for making dried gypsophila flowers: air-drying, press-drying and microwave oven. What you need to pay attention to when making dried flowers is that you must first dispose of the flowers with poor shape or yellow color before proceeding to the next step.

1. Water cultivation

First, prepare some clean water and a vase of appropriate size. Secondly. Trim the branches at the base of the flowers. Note that the bottom should be trimmed diagonally. Finally, place the gypsophila bouquet into the water. Remember, do not let leaves or flowers soak in water to prevent them from rotting. Then during the maintenance process, the water needs to be replaced every day, and the bottom part needs to be trimmed to slow down its withering speed.

2. Make dried flowers

1. Air-drying method: First, trim the fresh gypsophila to roughly the same length, and cut off the yellowed or withered flowers. The second is to use ropes to tie one bundle into several small bundles according to your own wishes. The third is a bouquet of gypsophila hanging upside down. Hang the tied baby's breath upside down and place it in a ventilated and dry place. The bouquet will dry in about half a month. It should be noted that the bouquet should not be attached to the wall to avoid uneven drying.

2. Pressing and drying method: 1. Divide the gypsophila as much as possible. Then cut off any flower branches that have poor shape or discoloration. It can be pruned to a shorter length without leaving all the stems, branches and leaves. The second is to clip the processed gypsophila into a thicker book. The dried flowers are ready in about four days.

3. Microwave oven method: First, you still need to process and prune the gypsophila. Secondly, use card paper to sandwich the baby's breath star in the middle of the card and secure it with a rubber band. Then, put the baby's breath in the microwave, use low heat, and set the time to about 10 seconds. Finally, remove the card and rubber band and let it dry naturally.
