After harvesting, cut the stem to the required length, remove a small amount of leaves, redundant side branches and damaged parts, tie it with a string into a suitable bouquet, and let the flowers hang on the iron wire.

This method can also be combined with heating and rapid drying, that is, the day after the flowers are pressed, or when they are about to dry, the absorbent paper with flowers is lightly branded with an electric iron several times, and then pressed as usual until it is completely dry. This not only has a fast drying speed, but also plays an insecticidal and bactericidal role, which is beneficial to the preservation of dried flowers.
