There are many good flowers for drying. I have a list of favorites but each year I add a few experiments. Here are some I can always rely on. The latter features fanlike blooms that resemble a rooster's crest. They bloom from June through October in shades of bright yellow, orange, red, pink, and purple.
Cockscomb likes full sun and moderate watering.
This flower blooms in pink, white, creams and purples. They resemble clover flower but are much tighter. They require full sun and easily survive neglect, heat and drought. These are considered the finest of all everlastings for the home garden. They always look fresh whether on the vine or after they have dried.
