Dried flowers (English) Everlasting flower

Japanese: ドライフラワー(英語表記)everlasting flower
Dried flowers (English) Everlasting flower
Natural flowers and plants dried for decorative purposes. They can be naturally dried, collected from withered plants, dehydrated and dried using desiccants or other methods, treated with high heat for a short time, or freeze-dried. Naturally dried flowers are the most common for decorative purposes. Plants such as wheat daisy, globe amaranth, and statice do not naturally drain water, making them suitable for drying. A famous place for producing them is Australia, which has suitable climate conditions and is also known as a "treasure trove of dried flowers." Dried flowers have been around in Europe since the 18th century, but have only become popular in Japan since the mid-1960s.
