Using this method may result in flowers discoloration, flower petals wrinkled up due to dehydration. During the olden days, flowers were preserved using the method of Pressing or Glycerine, unfortunately these methods fail to maintain the color, shape and texture. These days the flowers preservation technologies have significantly improved during the past few years in order to eliminate unwanted flowers discoloration and change of shape.
