These 1V2-3 Australian natives are best known as an integral part of dried flower arrangements. If picked when partially opened, strawflowers hold their color well and last for several years indoors. Colors include white, yellow, sajmon, red, and pink.

Let the container sit for 2 weeks. By then your dandelion heads will be permcmently dried, and your Dandelion Chicks will last a long time. Another way to dry flowers is to hang them upside down in your closet, basement, or garage. Leave them hanging for at least a week. Experiment with different types of flowers, cmd try different art and crafts projects with them. Many flowers wilt when dried, and their colors become dull. Some flowers, such as strawflowers and purple statice, remain bright and colorful. 

Occurrence G. and nerol occur in nature in the free form and as esters, G. in palmarosa oil (up to 85%) and geranium oil (40-50%), nerol in the essential oil of strawflower, Helichrysum italicum (=H. angustifo-lium, Asteraceae) 30-50%. 

Helichrysum (strawflower, Asteraceae) species are traditionally used for the treatment of wounds, infections, and respiratory conditions (Lourens et al., 2004). In the inflammatory process free radicals adsorb on the phagocyte cells, so the antioxidative activity of the extract and the EOs of different Helichrysum species were examined. Therefore, the plant material of Helichrysum dasyanthum, Helichrysum excisum, and Helichrysum petiolare were collected and the EO obtained by hydrodistillation. The GC-MS analysis showed that 1,8-cineole (20-34%), p-cymene (6-10%), and a-pinene (3-17%) are principal components of the EO. The EOs of all three different species show an antioxidative activity in the DPPH assay, bnt it has to be noticed that the extract, which was obtained by a cold...
